  • planning
  • big picture
  • decision
  • restless ambition

A world map held in one hand, a globe in the other. The Two of Wands is the planner's moment: surveying options, weighing futures, restless on the edge of something bigger.

  • playing it safe
  • fear of the unknown
  • indecision

The horizon looks better through the window than across it. Fear of the unknown dressed as prudence, plans stalling at the dreaming stage, a safe choice made out of smallness.
