Ace of Wands
A spark of new energy: an idea, a project or a desire that wants to be acted on now. The card describes raw potential and enthusiasm before any plan exists.
Fire · Spring
Suit of Wands
The suit of Wands is about what you are doing and how much fire is behind it.
ElementFire
DomainAction, ambition and creative drive
SeasonSpring
Zodiac signsAries, Leo, Sagittarius
The Wands handle action, ambition and creative drive. When several appear in a reading, that is the area doing the talking — regardless of what the question was about.
Within the suit, the number does the rest of the work: Aces open, fives disrupt, tens complete. Court cards describe people, or the way you are behaving in that area.

The suit of Wands in the zodiac
In Book T (1888) the Two to Ten of Wands cover the three Fire signs ten degrees at a time: Aries (Two to Four), Leo (Five to Seven) and Sagittarius (Eight to Ten).
Each numbered wands cell shows its planet and sign; the ace and the four court cards are labeled with their part of fire instead.
