PAGE OF WANDS TAROT CARD DESCRIPTION
To fully understand the Page of Wands tarot card meaning, we will first take a look at the Wands tarot card description.

Standing fearlessly in the middle of a desert, a well-dressed page faces a staff that he is holding upright. With his head held high, he exudes confidence and passion.
His clothing makes a bold statement. The hat that sits on his head has a feather sticking out of the top. This represents success and honor.
The salamander-like fabric used to design his shirt represents fire and transformation, while the color of his attire (orange) stands for vitality and courage.
Although the setting around him is dry and barren, it is evident that the Page of Wands believes in himself and his abilities wholeheartedly. Even in the most unlikely places, like the dry landscape, he’s able to find potential and makes things happen.
PAGE OF WANDS TAROT MEANING
A positive and upbeat card, the Upright Page of Wands brings both good news and good vibes. Not only are these things coming you’re way, but they are coming quickly.
The Page of Wands wants you to take time to connect with your inner self and use your originality and talents to carve a life path that is unique to you and you alone. It is a card full of hope and ambition, with an aspect of newness to it. Perhaps you are soon to begin a new adventure or journey!
When the Page of Wands appears upright in a reading, it is time to look toward the future. Something is calling you, be it a spiritual path or a creative one. It is time to manifest and create.
There may be something that is holding you back, and it is time to face this. Discover what it is that you need to do in order to succeed in life, and work on the future that is in front of you.
MONEY AND CAREER
The Page of Wands represents the freedom to do what you love and what you want. If he shows up during a money or career reading, you are right on the verge of discovering something that will lead to a more secure future.
It could be that you have just started a new job, are in the planning stages of a business, or want to jumpstart a community project.
The Page would suggest that you show optimism and be the first one to volunteer. The things that we are most excited about are the same ventures that lead us to overall success.
LOVE LIFE AND RELATIONSHIPS
The Page of Wands can represent a few different things in a love reading. If you are single, he might pose a partner with whom you will start a whirlwind romance. Charismatic and charming, you will attract this person like a magnet.
Although this might seem like a good thing, you must be careful not to get swept off your feet by charm alone. Many narcissists practice this ‘fairy tale’ behavior as a way to manipulate.
Be optimistic, but not naive, and the situation will play out exactly as it should.
If you are already committed, this Page can represent someone who is fun and outgoing but not able to move past his (or her) childish ways.
You might find that even though you are ready to move to the next level, your partner is just not ready to let go of his/her desire for freedom and autonomy.
If this is the case, you will need to really think about what you consider a ‘dealbreaker’. Then move on accordingly.
HEALTH AND SPIRITUALITY
You need to get moving–physically, mentally, and spiritually. You have been stuck in a rut for a while, and the Page of Wands has appeared as your ticket out of the situation. If you’ve been sick or depressed, exercise might be the key.
The Page of Wands is also an invitation to start or continue your spiritual path or journey. Be curious and focus on learning as much as you can spiritually. Creative outlets are always a good place to start.
Read, meditate, consult tarot, paint, fast, pray, practice Reiki, etc. You can also seek advice from a mentor or someone with spiritual wisdom.
REVERSED PAGE OF WANDS
Think about all you have learned about the Page of Wands in the upright position and flip it. This is the Reversed Page of Wands.

The Page of Wands Reversed suggests that you need to work on yourself. It reflects the negative personality traits that come along with having an outgoing personality like yours.
You (or the person in your life represented by the Page) may be impatient at times, naive, and too playful to get the job done.
If the Page appears in a flipped position, don’t fret. His good qualities are still present. You’ll just need to make sure that immaturity within yourself or others doesn’t stop you from accomplishing all you set out to achieve.
On the other hand, the Page of Wands reversed indicates that there’s something new brewing inside you, but you don’t know what to do with it or how to turn this into something tangible.
Just be patient and accept that this idea is still in the child phase. Instead, let it grow inside your mind and wait for it to bloom. You won’t regret that!
PAGE OF WANDS: YES OR NO
There’s no doubt about this one. The Page of Wands in a Yes or No reading represents an affirmative ‘yes’. Especially when connected to things that require a leap of faith.
Although it is good to plan things out, doing so with creativity, enthusiasm, and a ‘yes, I can’ attitude will make the challenges that pop up along the way much easier to manage.
PAGE OF WANDS AND ASTROLOGY
The Page of Wands is connected to the zodiac sign Aries. This is the sign of initiative, ambition, power, and confidence. Aries is ruled by Mars, the warrior of the planets. Mars is fiery, masculine, and can bring dramatic breakthroughs and revolutionary change. The structures of the past are torn apart to make progressive change.
IMPORTANT CARD COMBINATIONS
Outgoing, child-like cheerfulness, creative confidence, and fearlessness are all embodied by the Page of Wands. However, when in combination with other cards, this meaning might change. Below I’ve listed the most important card combinations.
THE PAGE OF WANDS AND THE EMPRESS
A long-forgotten dream is getting ready to reappear–and this time, you’ll accomplish it. Is there something that you were passionate about long ago, but cast to the side because of one reason or another? If the Page of Wands and the Empress fall together, it is time to nurture your most authentic desires and find a way to manifest them into reality.
THE PAGE OF WANDS AND THE WORLD
Get ready to travel abroad! This may be connected to your career, but it is much more likely that this will be a trip of both pleasure and inspiration. Maybe you’ve always wanted to study overseas, see the ancient Pyramids of Giza, or visit the land of your long-lost ancestors. Whatever your reason for exploration, the opportunity has arrived. The Page of Wands and the World are beckoning you to take a bold step.
THE PAGE OF WANDS AND THE SEVEN OF SWORDS
It is time to embrace your independence. The Page of Wands with the Seven of Swords tells you that connection with others is great.
In fact, it is a necessary part of a fulfilling life–but so is time for self-discovery. Commit to visiting a new place, planning a trip, reading a book, or trying a new recipe.
Just make sure you do these things alone. It might seem strange at first, but boosting your independence will give you the confidence you need to succeed in any lane.
THE PAGE OF WANDS AND THE SIX OF WANDS
These two cards together have just one message: you are a champion. That’s right. The Page of Wands and the Six of Wands suggest you have what it takes to not only succeed but to be on top.
Even when things get tough, embrace your strengths and self-confidence. Nothing is out of your reach. What thing would you do if you knew you couldn’t fail? Do that!
SOME CARD INSPIRATION AND JOY!

Wondering if you could help interpret this.
First card was Page of Wands.
Second card : Lovers
Third card: King of Wands
Thank you.

Hey,
I can’t fully answer what it means without knowing your situation and what you asked the cards. But, we can see that imagination and ideas are important in your life right now. Listen to that fire within you to guide you forward. As the Lovers has appeared, perhaps the Tarot wants you to use your drive and passion to build connections with others.
Lou,

Here you say Page of wands represents Aries. On a different sit they say it’s Sagittarius. Both are fire signs but which is the correct one?

Hi dear Wille & team!
Today I did a daily reading with 3 cards, about my thoughts, feelings and what I can do. While I was thinking about the situation with the man I love and got sad since I don’t know what to think and do. I pulled the Knight of Cups, Page of Wands and Two of Cups.
I’m not sure if I’m interpreting the answer correctly as to who or what the cards represent. Could you kindly help further?
Thank you so much in advance! Love your site, it‘s really helping me a lot since I recently started learning the basics 🙂
Greetings from Germany💫

Hey, these are all pretty positive cards in regard to love, but I cannot really say what they specifically mean in your position. I hope you find the answers you are looking for!

Hi, I asked why drama follows me. I pulled fom deck page of wands and page of coins. What does this mean? As I hate drama. Why does it follow me? Thank you. Any advice I will appreciate.
Lou says
Hey,
Two Pages is interesting. It may suggest there is naivety or a child-like view of the world.
