Three of Wands

A calm, stately personage, with his back turned, looking from a cliff’s edge at ships passing over the sea.  Three staves are planted in the ground, and he leans slightly on one of them.  Divinatory Meanings:  He symbolises established strength, enterprise, effort, trade, commerce, discovery; those are his ships, bearing his merchandise, which are sailing over the sea.  The card also signifies able co-operation in business, as if the successful merchant prince were looking from his side towards yours with a view to help you.  Reversed – the end of troubles, suspension or cessation of adversity, toil and disappointment.
