Your Chosen Card – Three of Wands Upright Golden Deck
When upright, the Three of Wands shows a man looking out to sea, watching his ships departing or coming in, perhaps carrying goods from a strategically planned business venture. This man and his partners, if he has any, have set realistic goals and acted with foresight. There is every expectation that this cooperative enterprise will succeed; but, to make sure, he is carefully overseeing each step of the process. When this card appears, you are given the green light to expand your horizons and plant the seeds for future success. The number 3 often refers to cooperative ventures, that is, to two or more people pooling their efforts over a period of time to create something new (for example, a married couple having a baby).
Keywords Upright: Enterprise, foresight, cooperation in business, trade, commerce, launching a new venture, exploring possibilities, creating something new, awaiting results, maximizing chances of success, long-range planning, realistic goals, collaborating with others to pursue a goal, embarking on a new course of action, taking a calculated risk, the end of troubles, your ships departing or coming in.

Portable Magic: At once release your will to be united with the other person. Direct it with your right hand and arm as though casting forth a glowing lance of white fire from your heart centre through the centre of the triangle of golden light that floats upon the air above the raised dais of the three elemental trumps. Feel yourself snatch the fiery lance of your will out of your heart centre and fling it through the centre of the triangle. Visualize the upright astral triangle filling with bright radiance.
