Two of Wands

Here we have the Two of Wands, which is sometimes called the Lord of Dominion and aligned with Mars in Aries. It represents the balance of power, negotiations and the drive to find new directions and methods of achievement.

Mars represents pure energy, enthusiasm and drive, and it is in its natural domicile in Aries, being the ruling planet of this sign. So it is like a double shot of power, forcefulness and fiery enthusiasm to make your mark on the world.

This card develops the burst of fiery energy and enthusiasm initiated in the Ace into a new idea, and an innovative way of bringing that idea into reality.  It takes courage to take this new thought and breathe life into it - it requires faith, willingness to see it through and the patience to wait for the fruits of your labour to appear above the ground.

There is a feeling of confidence, energy and a can-do attitude when this card turns up in a reading for you. There is an injection of authority and a sense of power that is granted to you that is to some degree a new experience. If you have kept your opinions to yourself in the past, this card brings a boldness and willingness to speak your mind and stand up more for what you believe in.

Taken too far, of course, and this influence could see you attempting to over-wield your power, so it is important to keep the balance that is meant in the Twos of all the Suits in mind, else there is the potential for conflict. Don't overdo it.

It is a good time to examine your normal response when you feel challenged - do you keep your centre in such situations, or do you tend to blow off steam or get a little hot-headed?
