What do I need to focus on today? - 2 of Wands R (Revelations and Full Moon Dreams)



Twos symbolize formation, balance, partnership, polarity and the coming together of opposites.  Twos can indicate that the focus can no longer be only on oneself; that there is another factor influencing the situation.  They represent the affirmation and confirmation of new directions that were begun at the Ace level.  Wands are usually associated with the element of fire, inspiration, energy, passion, feeling, enterprise, ambition, matters pertaining to the "spark of life".  

"You are affirming or claiming a new self-concept.  Though others may not be aware of it, you have personally named and accepted a part of yourself that you may have previously ignored." - Gail Fairfield

Looking at the Revelations 2 of Wands I get a sense of needing to focus and channel my energies.  The image shows someone holding two wands that meet at the top  and form a triangle.  The energy seems to be dispersing as it flows down.  It's as if I'm wasting energy, allowing it to just fade away instead of being funneled and channeled into some sort of project or activity.

Lunaea refers to this card as "meeting the ancestor" in the Full Moon Dreams deck.  That's sort of how I feel after Readers Studio 2010 - as though I've connected with my Tarot ancestors, those who have paved the Tarot path before me.  Along the way I was able to learn some lessons and gain some insights that I've been avoiding before.  I have a well-developed ability to deceive myself but when doing readings with other people (especially those who don't know me well and therefore have no vested interest in skewing their interpretations, that's almost impossible to do.  Once again I was hit in the face with the fact that the Tarot won't let me lie to myself, no matter how hard I try.

With that in mind I think what this card is trying to tell me is that my energies are a bit too unfocused lately.  I may generate a lot of sound and fury but right now it's signifying nothing (to paraphrase Shakespeare).  I need to become more focused and directed in my life.  Perhaps what I need to do is seek some advice from my familial ancestors and my spiritual ancestors.  It might be time to do some inner workings a la meditation.  I've been considering attempting some work with my Akashic records too.  That might be another tool to help me gain some focus and direction.
