I think of Page of Wands very simply as “permission to hope”. This card often shows up when we have ended something or completed a phase of our lives that was difficult and heavy. We find that reflected in the 10 of Wands, which precedes the Page: an experience of burden or labor (often emotional labor, but sometimes literal labor as in too much damn work) that has drained us of optimism and joy. In the 10 we find a saturation point, but in the Page, something has shifted enough to allow us to see ourselves and our circumstances with a renewed sense of possibility. We find ourselves here with a stirring of long-dormant ambition and a hunger for new experiences. Page of Wands relishes in anticipation and teaches us to savor the beginnings of things. It tells us to go ahead and believe that things could be *good*.
