Three of Wands
Keywords: Exploration, Foresight, Leadership
Three kittens embark on an adventure. Ready to expand his horizons, a leader emerges. Exploration of the unknown is required for youth to gain the skills that only experience can hone. Will the others follow him into the garden? Unlike the Fool these kittens have thought about this action. Still, it is a leap of faith and requires the bold self-confidence of a wands temperament.
What prompts us to take a chance, to start a new venture? Vision? Foresight? How do you know a gamble is worth the risk? The safe route may be to follow another's lead, but someone has to go first. The Three of Wands speaks to those qualities which produce leadership.
When this card appears in a reading it asks you to take the long view. This may promt you to put plans into action. It does not guarantee success, but it does encourage you to follow your vision. It may encourage you to take a leadership role, explore the possibilities that are all around us. Alternatively, it may be a warning that you may want to look more closely at the one you have chosen to follow. Is this the path you truly wish to be on?
