PAGE OF WANDS

HE APPEARS ON THE SCENE TO DELIVER A MESSAGE OF ACTION 

Whenever we talk about the 4 pages in the Tarot deck, it is first important to note that they are always messengers that have the chief function of making a delivery to implement the particular elemental energy behind them. They act as a link between higher court cards in that suit and the material scenes depicted on the minor arcana cards. They carry the force of the elemental energy as handed down from the astral realm and manifest that energy in their appearance on the scene. Therefore they have no astrological correspondence because they are earthly messengers. 

The PAGE OF WANDS is a messenger of action, adventure, and plans. He carries the fiery energy of the element, namely Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius all wrapped up in one. Because wands always come first of the four suits, he is considered the "first" page and therefore shares an attribute of new beginnings similar to the Ace of Wands and The Fool. Note that his flashy feather that he wears in his cap is similar to the one which The Fool wears. Since this is the only other card in the whole deck besides the Fool that has a feather in his cap we immediately associate the two cards. 

When this flashy and dramatic page shows up in a reading, especially in a future position, his meaning is very clear- a communication is coming soon, be it by email, phone, fax, or skywriting, whatever,  of a new action or plan. The communicado will probably come quickly and have a flashy/dramatic flare to it. The news will be one of perhaps new career or project or plan. Travel is very much a possibility. Risk will play a major role as fiery intensity of any kind usually carries with it some risk. But as with most anything in life, reward does not come without risk and the greater the risk, the greater the reward.
