I’ve started doing a ritual on the solstice before Christmas – the true New Year – whereby I choose a Tarot card to represent the year that is coming up.

This year I got the Two of Wands.

Not a card I’m super familiar with.

It signifies…

Having power over others

Wielding influence

Being a pioneer

Investigating a new opportunity

Stepping outside social expectations

Figuring out the way forward

Note: Wands involve action. So the figuring out occurs by doing, not thinking.

But my favourite meaning is…

Being bold!

Choosing your own path!

Taking a risk!

Do you know any other meanings for this card?
