Knight of Wands
Meaning
Sagittarius The Knight of Wands represents the fiery part of Fire. He is a warrior in complete armour. On his helmet for a crest, he wears a black horse. In his hand he bears a flaming torch; a flame also in his mantle; and upon the flames does he ride. His steed is a black horse leaping. The moral qualities appropriate to this figure are activity, generosity, fierceness, impetuosity, pride, impulsiveness, swiftness in unpredictable actions. If wrongly energised, he is evil-minded, cruel, bigoted and brutal. He is in either case ill-fitted to carry on his action; he has no means of modifying it according to circumstances. If he fails in his first effort, he has no recourse.
Elemental Dignity
You stand at the zenith of fiery action, where your impetuous spirit is tempered by intellectual clarity and swift discernment. The Knight of Wands, harmonized with Air, channels his fierce energy into purposeful leadership and inspired innovation, manifesting courage that ignites transformation without recklessness.
The force of your fiery impulse is drowned in turbulent waters, where passion becomes confusion and swiftness turns to chaos. The Knight of Wands, subdued by Water, manifests as destructive pride and impulsivity unchecked by wisdom, leading to cruelty, bitterness, and a loss of direction in the storm of emotions.
