✦ Upright Meaning

A hand emerges from a cloud holding a budding wand — pure creative potential, a new project or passion ready to begin. Say yes to the spark before it fades.

✦ Reversed Meaning

Reversed, it can mean a creative block, a delayed start, or enthusiasm that fizzles out before it takes hold.
