THREE OF WANDS
In These Spread Positions...Interpret the Three of Wands Meanings to Include:
1 GOVERNED BY THE MAGICIAN: PHYSICAL GIVENS, OUT OF THE FATHER
UPRIGHT: The affairs of the Physical/Material Plane—health, home, work—are of utmost importance
to you, as you see them as part and parcel of your spiritual growth, not as something separate
and alien. Look for your spiritual quest to determine your travels and quests in the physical world.
Perhaps Marco Polo, or the Knights Templar. INVERTED: The merging of “higher” and “lower”
paths must not be allowed to blur the healthy distinction of the spiritual and physical to be enjoyed
in any incarnation. Guard against spiritual nomadism as well as complacency and smugness.
2 GOVERNED BY THE HIGH PRIESTESS: EMOTIONAL GIVENS, OUT OF THE MOTHER
UPRIGHT: The affairs of the Emotional/Creative Plane, relationships and expression of your
talents, are of utmost importance, for you see them as one with your spiritual growth, not as
something to be watched and subdued. Your spiritual quest will determine your selection of experiences
on the emotional path. Perhaps Lancelot, or Michelangelo. INVERTED: The merging of
“higher” and “lower” paths must not be allowed to blur the healthy distinction of the spiritual and
emotional to be enjoyed in any incarnation. Guard against spiritual isolation and asceticism.
3 GOVERNED BY THE EMPRESS: MENTAL GIVENS, INTELLECTUAL PREDISPOSITION
UPRIGHT: The business of the Mental Plane, the ability of mind to improve the overall condition
of the self (and eventually others), is of utmost importance to you. For you, mental progress is one
with spiritual progress, and not something to be feared and tamed. Look for your spiritual quest to
set the agenda for your intellect. Perhaps Galileo, or Shakespeare. INVERTED: The merging of
“higher” and “lower” paths must not be allowed to blur the healthy distinction between mind and
spirit to be enjoyed in any incarnation. Guard against self-righteousness and presumption.
4 GOVERNED BY THE EMPEROR: SPIRITUAL GIVENS, LIFE PURPOSE
UPRIGHT: This lifetime is marked by activity and preparation. There is a pleasant restlessness, a
balance of contentment with what you already have in your spiritual portfolio and of dissatisfaction
with the status quo, a hunger for the effect of the unknown. INVERTED: You may be required to use
your energies more in shoring up the existing portfolio which may try your patience, or you may be
required to spend your time almost entirely in projections into new discoveries which may test your
continuity with the past.
5 GOVERNED BY THE HIEROPHANT: SYSTEMS BORN INTO, SOCIETAL INFLUENCE
UPRIGHT: A respect for tradition tinged with a fascination with the new, the yet to be known, marks
this early environment. Myths and fairy tales are passed on in such an atmosphere. A sense of responsibility
for continuity, but with the past, present, and the future having their distinct responsibilities. A
respect for the fact that the future is rooted in the past. INVERTED: Some distortion of continuity
existed. An insistence on either the past, the present, or the future, with a neglect of the importance of
the others, prevailed. Commonly, this is an insistence on tradition at the cost of new needs.
6 GOVERNED BY THE LOVERS: EMOTIONAL TAPES, BASIS FOR RELATING/CREATING
UPRIGHT: This passion is for the sensation of the journey itself, between departure and arrival.
Here is the excitement of movement, once choice has been made—until time for the next choice.
This interim carries its own special sensations. There is a sense of rightness about past events tinged
with the mystery of future events, but both are overwhelmed by the liberty of the moment at hand.
