Knight of Wands in Career
Upright
This is the time to take the initiative: go after a new role, expand your business or launch a long-delayed plan. Your drive and daring can open doors, and pairing them with a simple action plan will make the results last.
Reversed
Impatience can lead to mistakes, or you may want to change course before a project is finished. A career move may also be delayed, leaving you frustrated. Finish what is in front of you before planning the next leap.
Job search & interviews
Upright
Your job-hunting drive is strong, so apply boldly, reach out proactively and consider roles in new fields or those involving travel. Opportunities may arrive quickly, so be ready to seize them decisively.
Reversed
You may be rushing to quit or jump ship without thinking the next step through, or impulsively accepting a role that does not suit you. Give yourself time to reflect and make sure the new job truly fits your direction.
At work
Upright
You are full of drive at work and well suited to leading new projects, developing business or handling tasks that need fast responses. Your energy can carry the team, but remember to keep colleagues updated on your progress.
Reversed
You may be so eager for results that details slip, or so restless that you simply want to escape. An impatient attitude could also cause friction with colleagues. Pause to plan, then direct your energy where it is most useful.
Business & side projects
Upright
The time has come to launch or expand, with bold new products or new markets. Your passion and courage can attract customers and partners, though you still need a basic plan to back up your momentum.
Reversed
Impulsive expansion or hasty decisions could lead to chaos, or plans may keep being delayed, leaving you frustrated. Slow down, confirm your resources and risks, and only then decide whether to push ahead.
