The Queen of Wands is someone with a strong sense of self who wishes to inspire or help the querent. She understands the importance of personal power and strength of will. She can either encourage the querent to boldness or force the querent into action. She is strong and confident and wants others to be, too, whether they are ready or not. The Queen of Wands is involved in this situation because doing so furthers her own agenda. If she were to give one piece of advice, it would be this: just do it.
The Universal Waite queen appears almost masculine, symbolizing her assertive (verging on aggressive) nature. The sunflower represents her optimism. She looks off in the distance, scanning the horizon for opportunities, but her black cat, symbolizing her intuitive side, stares at the querent. This queen is paying attention to everything.
Core meaning: One who develops and cares for others in the realm of will, inspiration, or passion.
The Legacy queen is bold and daring. She is clearly challenging the querent to do something, and yet there is also an encouraging compassion in her eyes. She knows the situation may be scary, but it's okay ... do it anyway.
In the Shadowscapes card, the queen uses her gift of music to inspire others. She expresses the idea that if you fill yourself with the music of the spheres, you will find the courage to do anything.
