Rohrig Tarot - Two of Wands
Carl Rohrig
Bluestar Communications, 1995

This is a beautiful card. I will never be able to describe it thoroughly enough, but I'll try. There is a lot of detail in the Rohrig deck!

Over the word "wands" at the top, it says "Dominion". The top and bottom of the card look like notebook paper, and there are words written on the top of the paper--apparently the artist's notes about the card. The picture is of two irridescent wands rising up into the sky. Behind them, a distance away, is a mountain with a structure atop it. Light is radiating from the structure. There are two winding paths that lead from the front of the card to the top of the mountain. The mountain and earth are in brown and orange tones; the sky behind it is purple.

LWB: Very concise. In the introduction to the minors, the author states that wnds symbolize summer, and represent "the prime energy, movement, excitement and creative male energy."
For 2 of wands: Creative energy waiting to be channeled; the reigns of power and will; ruling over a situation.

I see this card as a journey to the divine spark of creativity within oneself. It is a time to tap into the power within in order to produce results. These results could be a project at work or home, or it could be more subtle. As a teacher, I think of applying this to my relationship with my students, or setting the tone within the classroom. The road is winding, indicating that it will be no simple process. But the illumination is there, waiting to be found.
