Upright Knight of Wands Card Meaning

When the Knight of Wands is upright in a Tarot reading, it may suggest that you or someone else connected with the situation (or the atmosphere in general) has a confident and passionate style, just as the Knight of Wands does. The only thing to check is whether this "energy" of the Knight is helpful or not. Is it confidence or cockiness you feel? Are you (or is your company) rushing into something without preparation (which could be risky)? This could be a time for a change, for balance. If this energy is missing, then it might be the time to try something new, maybe have some fun. The Knight of Wands could be an indication to go out for some adventure, some excitement, some risk. Only you can decide if the Knight's energy is helpful or wanting. If you are dealt this card, check to see whether your confidence is really cockiness. Do you feel angry and impatient all the time? If this style of the Knight is evident, you probably need to rebalance. It might be time for a change instead of rushing into something risky without any preparation. If you are missing the Knight's energy, you might need to try something new. If you have been working hard, maybe it's time to go and have some fun.
