Knight of Wands
I'm a bit bored, so I thought I'd share my thoughts on this card, who knows, it may help someone!
Firstly, I note the numerology aspects of this card. The Three, like a couple coming together to create a baby, or two partners coming together to create a business suggests that something is being made, created. In this, especially with Cups, it is sometimes suggestive of pregnancy.
This is enhanced by its Relationship with The Empress, a card suggesting love and creativity, as well as the archetype of the Great Mother. Again we see an inclication of preganancy.
Cups are indicative of emotions and feelings, together with the Three, I see perhaps the start of a new relationship. The two people who met in the previous card have come together to create a relationship.
In the RWS, this card is suggestive of friendship and the joy that accompanies spending time with those you love. The figures dance joyfully, grapes above their heads, indicative of wine.
It is a card suggestive of partying, of celebration.
The women are together, leaning on each other for support, and possibly advice. Could it be suggesting to join a community group? Or if you have a problem, that the old saying, a problem shared is a problem halfed. Perhaps even groups like AA, where people help you and support you, and you do the same in return.
Some more negative aspects of this are excessive partying, excessive drinking, even drug taking. Here, the AA suggestion seems paticulary apt. It can suggest people spending too much time having fun, too much partying. Too much play, not enough work.
I have also seen it to suggest love triangles in some readings, although this of course would be down to the Reader to determine.
I also see perhaps relying too much on others, relying too much on your friends and being afraid to break out of the circle and go at it alone. Your friends can't support you forever.
Any other thoughts welcome...
