What the card shows
A young person in a tunic patterned with salamanders stands in a desert holding a tall wand and studying its top. Pyramids sit far behind.
Pages are beginners and messengers. Wands are fire, so this is eager, early-stage drive. The salamanders are a traditional fire symbol, and the barren ground suggests a talent that has not yet been tried.
▲Upright
Enthusiasm for something new, and the willingness to explore it before being good at it.
What am I curious enough about to try badly?
▼Reversed
Excitement without direction, or a spark that fizzles early.
Which of my ideas deserves one real week of effort?
