Knight of Wands
Upright Meaning: Energy, passion, confidence, momentum, adventure. Swift pursuit of goals; fearless forward motion. Reversed Meaning: Impulsiveness, recklessness, burnout, acting without direction; scattered creative fire.
Is this you or just your shadow,
a dark knight on a dark horse?
The scattered stardust suggests
the former, your horse kicking up
her heels, ready to charge forth,
you, secure in your saddle,
wand held aloft, channeling energy
out of the sky, stardust falling
all around, a cosmic victory eminent.
About the Creator
Harper Lewis
I'm a weirdo nerd who’s extremely subversive. I like rocks, incense, and all kinds of witchy stuff. Intrusive rhyme bothers me.
I’m known as Dena Brown to the revenuers and pollsters.

Letter to my Daughter
You have a choice to make here: are you going to continue the cycle, or are you going to break it? Keeping your son away from me hurts him; there’s no question about that. I thought you were being hurt, and I was trying to protect you, not punish anyone when I kept your grandfather away from you. I have said that I was wrong and I am sorry, but there was never any malice involved.
