Tarot Tuesday 2/11/25: King of Wands

King of Wands - Golden Art Nouveau Tarot

Two weeks in a row of kings! The theme this week centers on sovereignty (personal and otherwise), and the power plays that ensue. This is a week where you’ll really want to strengthen that solar plexus chakra: muster all the confidence you’ve got, to regain whatever part of “you” got lost along the way. How you show up in the world right now matters, and if you’ve been shrinking or hiding, it’s time to change that.

The Full Moon in Leo (Wed. 2/12) signals a closure to that cycle, inviting you to put “Self” front & center again. The King of Wands is here to remind us that we are a force to be reckoned with. Mars is still retrograde, so there is definitely some tension & intensity that goes along with the territory… a little bit of “F*** around and find out” floating out there.

For some, you’ll be confronted with a formidable opponent in the form of an authority (or, let’s face it- authoritarian) figure. This is not a time to back down. Leo energy is about finding our courage, so use the Full Moon to release any fears holding you back from showing up or speaking up.

King of Wands is ruled by fire—he is passionate, imaginative, & enterprising; the question is—is the King of Wands you?...or what you’re up against? There’s a chess game happening and you need to resource yourself in order to make your next move. Fuel your own passion, your own fire, in order to stay ahead of the game.
