THE FOUR OF WANDS, LORD OF PERFECTED WORK

   Four wands stand together. A decorative wreath hangs between the poles, bearing flowers and fruit, especially grapes. The four wands and the wreath, whether forming an entryway to a festival or a wedding bower, suggest balance and abundance: the perfected work of the harvest has brought prosperity, peace, and harmony. Your allies in the distance are enthusiastically waving bouquets of flowers under the influence of Jupiter and Venus in Ares. Venus rules attraction, love, and marriage, as well as harmony in relationships. Venus, placed in a fire sign, often results in dramatic, exciting and fiery expressions of love, which can lead to short-lived, unsatisfactory relationships. On the “lower" planes (mental, emotional, and physical), Venus is an unstable influence. But in terms of the Tree of Life, your allies the Empress (Venus) and Emperor (Ares) are experiencing harmonizing love on the spiritual plane (Wands), combined with the expansiveness and abundance of Jupiter. For your joyful allies, the manifestation of spiritual love--filled with compassion, the fire of the life-force, and the abundance of the heart--is the perfected work.
