KeywordsConfidence, charm, independence, energy

The picture · Bright face · Shadow · Way through

Every card has four faces: what the picture shows, the bright face it turns when the situation supports it, the shadow when the same root is overdone or stuck, and the way through that the picture itself draws.

The picture

A queen holds a sunflower, a black cat at her feet

Bright face

Warm confidence that draws people in

Shadow

Heat that cools when the spotlight moves

Way through

Sunflowers turn with the sun — move to where you shine

As your card of the day

If Queen of Wands is the first card you draw today, the day leans toward “Warm confidence that draws people in”. When it tips toward “Heat that cools when the spotlight moves”, remember the way the picture draws: Sunflowers turn with the sun — move to where you shine.

Auspira is for entertainment and self-reflection. The cards are a mirror that shows the present from another angle; they do not predict the future and are no substitute for medical, legal, financial, or psychological advice.
