Symbolism
The Page of Wands shows a young man holding a long staff in both hands, as he looks inquisitively at the green leaves that sprout from the top. His tunic features salamanders, a mythical creature that is associated with fire and transformation. The Page stands still and his staff is firmly planted on the ground, suggesting that while he is inspired by the potential growth represented in the sprouting staff, he has not yet taken action on this inspiration.
In the background, the landscape is barren and mountainous, suggesting that this Page has the gift of being able to find growth and potential in the most unlikely places. He is so energized by his ideas, that he can make anything happen and isn’t limited by his circumstances.

The appearance of the Page of Wands indicates that you are experiencing a creative restlessness within you that is just waiting for some sort of expression. You have experienced a creative spark, and now you are keen to turn your vision into reality. However, notice that the Page is standing still and his staff is firmly planted on the ground – he is not going anywhere just yet. You still need to take your creative spark and ground it down into reality so that it is ready to be implemented in the physical realm. You may need to map out how you would turn your ideas into reality. Or, you may need to test your ideas or create a few experiments before fully committing. Or, you may need to run your ideas through a filter so that you are only taking action on those ideas that are most aligned with your broader goals.
The Page of Wands can appear when a spiritual path or journey may be calling you. You have a curious mind and you are intrigued to see where it may lead. You are very much the novice when it comes to this spiritual calling, and you are open to new experiences and new levels of consciousness. You may benefit from working with a wise mentor; someone who has walked your path before and can now lead you forward.
