Four of Wands

Minor Arcana · Asa Dört

Stability or pause in drive, creativity and action.

Upright: fire, drive, creativity and action

Reversed: blocked, excess

Waite's description

From the four great staves planted in the foreground there is a great garland suspended; two female figures uplift nose-gays; at their side is a bridge over a moat, leading to an old manorial house.

Divinatory Meanings

They are for once almost on the surface—country life, haven of refuge, a species of domestic harvest-home, repose, concord, harmony, prosperity, peace, and the perfected work of these.

Reversed

The meaning remains unaltered; it is prosperity, increase, felicity, beauty, embellishment.
