Knight of Wands

An armored knight rides across the countryside. Like the Page of Wands and the King of Wands his robes bear the sign of the salamander, symbolizing the Spirit of Fire (or a fiery spirit).

Knights represent motion and change. Whenever a Knight appears in a reading it means that long term conditions are going to come to an end. A journey or change of residence may be indicated. There is no such thing as chance. Put your faith in God and Destiny, for you are close to reaching your goal. Issues will be resolved in your favor.

As with all Court cards, it is also possible for a Knight to represent a person. In this case, the Kight of Wands can represent a person of hasty and impetuous nature. This is a passionate individual who can be generous, but can also create conflict, possibly through jealousy or narrow-mindedness.
