Upright Meaning

Like the sun, you are full of energy. In fact, the only difference between you and the celestial furnace, is that you are burning brighter.

Generally, The King of Wands means you are at your most bold and charismatic, and this card encourages you to ride this wave into your dream future.

Reversed Meaning

You know you have what it takes to move forward, but someone in power is less convinced and may try to hold you back. If you feel that this is not the case, but your career or plan is not developing as well as you have hoped, it could be that your own fear of responsibility is hampering your progress. In the social, family or work aspects of your life, you may find yourself confronted by an arrogant, overbearing man who believes he is right and tries to impose his views and morals on everyone around him - don’t be bullied. You may also be at risk of becoming involved in a dispute of some kind; you’ll be in a weak position as an authority figure will not be on your side. It might be best to beat a dignified retreat.
