IN DEPTH:
The Four of Wands shows an old friend celebrating and being celebrated. They dance atop the table, keeping the beat with one hand and holding a cigarette and a strand of flowers in the other. Above, a beautiful canopied wreath lush with fragrant blossoms is suspended between four wands. The room is loud with music, food, drink, conversation, and intrigue. Lights are low and the room is filled with friends that feel like family. Four of wands ask us to seek and savor the company of those that bring to us home, and help us feel like we belong in this world together. Being together is a celebration and homecoming in and of itself.
Dear comrade, if you encounter the Four of Wands, and you receive an invitation… please, just go and be with your people. You are safe, you are loved, you are occasion enough for celebration. Let’s party.

When Josie comes home
So good
She’s the pride of the neighborhood
She’s the raw flame
The live wire
She prays like a Roman
With her eyes on fire
