Your Chosen Card – King of Wands Reversed Golden Deck
When reversed, the Knight of Wands may come across as rather domineering and egotistical. His excessive pride and arrogance often turn people off. His stern and intolerant opinions can cause difficulties for those who are in relationship with him. Religious versions of the reversed Wand Knight relish the words of Ephesians 5:22: ‘Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord’ (KJV).

Book Details
Complete Book of Tarot: The freeloader myth: never buy your own cards; they must be given to you as a gift.
Complete Book of Tarot: Tarot, on the other hand, has evolved to become a tool to tap into ones intuition, understand ones motivations, gain insight, and brainstorm. The modern focus on the use of the tarot has changed from fortune-telling to gaining perspective, clarifying issues, and taking responsibility for ones life. The older fortune-telling aspects of tarot do not fit well with the current approach of empowering clients to make informed decisions. In fact, the majority of modern tarot readers prefer not to be viewed as fortune tellers.

Tarot Triumphs: It’s important to become familiar with the names and images of each card before trying out a Tarot divination. If they are new to you, I suggest that you get to know them all as if you were becoming acquainted with guests at a dinner party, or fellow travelers on an expedition. You don’t need to know everything about the Tarot Triumphs at this stage, but it’s crucial to be able to recognize all of them and have a sense of their key meanings. That way, your intuition can work with the card combinations because you have already absorbed the essential identity of the individual cards. You can use the illustrations in this book, your own pack, and the two sets of descriptions that I’ve given earlier to get to know the twenty-two cards. It’s good to master the numbering too if you can, but it’s not compulsory at this point. We’ll discuss the sequence of the numbers in the next chapter.
