Lammas | The Queen of Wands

At Lammas, we see that the excitable energies of the Prince of Wands have given way to the more mature energies of The Queen of Wands.



With the bobcat crouched beneath her chair and her confident open-kneed seat, we are under no illusions about the power and sexual confidence of this person.  Passion and a can-do attitude are the watchwords of The Queen.

The blaze behind her rages, but her heavy-lidded gaze is unconcerned.  This is something that the Queen of Wands needs to watch out for - it's marvellous to be assertive and passionate about life, but if you lose touch with your compassion for others or let your assertiveness tip over into aggression, you will find yourself playing alone in the school yard.

The Queen urges us to develop our passions but with sensitivity.  Be confident, but kind.  Be assertive, but understanding of other's needs

If you can master all of that, you might just escape a vicious poke from her little Wand!

What steps can you take to nurture a passion?
What fires within you need stoking up or tamping down?
Which challenges can you turn into opportunities?
