Knight of Wands | King of Cups | The Hermit

You might feel a strong desire to get going with an idea or to move in a new direction, but something or someone is holding you back from taking action. Is it the right time? Do you need to create more of a plan or to consider your options?

The Knight of Wands can be impulsive, and sometimes we need an impulsive drive coupled with action to get new ideas moving, but you might be butting heads with someone who is older, wiser and more mature. The King of Cups has emotional mastery. What can you learn from him? This person might be holding your passion back like a dam for a very good reason. Are you considering other people’s feelings or are you just focused on your own needs? The King of Cups might be showing you ways you can stay in the game longer by tempering your drive, trying to focus it, or redirected it if need be. Where are you trying to place your passion and why? Do you have a game plan? The King of Cups would encourage you to make your choices from the heart and to consider how your actions make other people feel. How do you want to be seen?

The Hermit card also cautions you to take your time, to conserve your energy and to wait for the right time. Make choices that place you in the most balanced and stable light.  Stop and listen to inner guidance and consider counsel from those who might have more experience than you do, as well as your best interest at heart. The Hermit implies that if you are in this race for the long haul, you will need to conserve your energy. Which actions reflect the most cultured and mature version of yourself? How can you be seen as someone who has kindness, empathy and compassion?
