General
Reversed General Meaning
Reversed, the Page of Wands shows enthusiasm without direction or discouraging news around a beginning. Curiosity needs discipline if it is to become more than a passing impulse.
Love & Relationships
Reversed Love Meaning
A charming person may be inconsistent, commitment-shy, or more interested in attention than connection. Notice whether excitement is matched by effort.
