GODDESS OF WANDS
The Goddess of Wands shows a beautiful mermaid sitting on a rocky island appreciating the liquid colors of the sunrise. Next to her, a magical wand shines bright. The Goddess is not alone; she has attracted the attention and affection of a parrot, who will repeat the Goddess’s words and teachings everywhere they go.
The Parrot is a sign that the Goddess of Wands is a social butterfly, someone other people are naturally drawn to and like deeply, even though they may have nothing in common with the Goddess. She is an upbeat leader and listener whose advice is valued among friends and peers and who values a diversity of experiences, influences and perspectives. The Mermaid personifies creativity and the power of genuine connections. She owns her powers and shares all the beauty she sees with the world around her, but she doesn’t shy away from the darkness of deep waters where she lets her fish side fly. She knows which way is up and how to find the sunrays through cloudy waters. She leads a busy life, but only because she makes time for all the things she loves and enjoys. Her powers are independence, freedom, communication and charisma.
The Goddess of Wands is here to encourage you to be and show your full self, not just the self you think people want to see or the self you want others to get to know. Your full self: the dark humor, the scars from traumas, the gray parts and the neon-colored parts. Step into your confidence, into the comforts of the deep ocean that makes up your heart and mind and just share a wave.
IF YOU’RE FEELING BLOCKED:
Though the Mermaid is naturally a social butterfly, you might not be feeling all that social. You might be experiencing a period of introversion, or of distrust in others. You might have just gotten out of some negative entanglement, as not everyone who is naturally drawn to you will automatically be a healthy influence or relationship. You might have learned over time to be more cynical or skeptical of people — has it reached the point where you’re cynical or skeptical to a fault? It’s okay to step back from the center of the crowd, to watch the world from the sidelines for a bit as you contemplate your next move and find your inner voice and outer power.
Find stability and strength in your creative foundation. The rocks symbolize the solid ground upon which your artistic endeavors can flourish, providing a reliable platform for your imagination to take flight. Cultivate authentic connections and nurture collaborations that enhance your creative journey. Embrace the wisdom of the mermaid and the parrot, as they symbolize the entanglement and friendship between diverse souls.
