More so than the other suits, the numerical progression in the Wands has always struck me as fairly seamless. Beginning at the Ace, we have a recognition of the desire to create something new. In the 2 there is the choice of a direction in which to invest our energy. In the three the new venture is launched and we must wait to see the results. In the 4 the ships have returned with a full bounty providing us with a good foundation for the future. Now it is time to relax and celebrate with others, sharing and giving thanks for our success and good fortune.
This card suggests that we have an occasion to celebrate something. It is more ceremonial than the 3 of Cups, possibly because it is a four which is more structured and formal than the spontaneous three.
Traditionally this card represents formal celebrations such as those for a wedding, a grand opening or a house warming; laying a solid foundation for future growth and prosperity; and seasonal and commemorative celebrations.
