THE SUIT OF FIRE

Ace of Fire

The Ace of Fire is the first card in a suit that promises many wonderful things. When we draw this card, we have amazing opportunities to change our lives. Aces represent a beginning within the element of their suit. In this case, that is Fire, indicating that new opportunities exist in the areas of creativity, career, passion, and self-development.

Now, we can see that our dreams are within reach; however, we will have to take the actions necessary to attain our goals. This card tells us that wonderful new possibilities are coming into play.

Symbolism

Genies are magical beings who wish to make our dreams come true. This genie has no ulterior motives; he merely wishes to serve. His only reward is to see our happiness fulfilled.

It’s said that in order to have a genie appear, it’s necessary to rub a magic lamp. The lamp at the bottom of the card tells us that we can make wishes, but it’s also necessary to be “hands-on” when the magic starts to happen.

The flowering bush surrounding our genie is called potentilla (often referred to as “cinquefoil”). The name potentilla comes from the Latin word potens, which means to be “powerful, strong, and capable of success.”

The five points of the potentilla are said to represent the five senses, and the flowers were worn by medieval knights who’d been successful in their personal quests.

The genie stands between two cities, indicating that there are multiple opportunities for our plans to successfully play out.

In the sky float three moons, mirroring the traditional three wishes said to be offered by genies.

Astrologically, the Moon refers to our emotions, needs, and intuition. All of these are excellent guides in knowing just which wish to make!

Angel Number

This is Card 23. When a magical card like the Ace of Fire shows up, it’s very important to keep our thoughts positive. We’re in “manifesting mode” with this card, and our beliefs determine what we create. Because of the 3 energy in this number, we may feel inclined to ask for help from ascended masters such as Jesus, the saints, or other spiritual leaders in Heaven. Their assistance dissipates negative energy and keeps our intentions crystal clear.

The number 23 also reduces down to a 5 (2 + 3). Fives are indicators of big changes that are coming into our lives, as well as our power to make modifications to our personal paths, as we’re inclined to do.

Astrology

The Aces don’t have a specific astrological assessment, but are connected to the element their suit represents—in this case, the suit of Fire. However, the card is attached to the three signs of the zodiac from the element of Fire: Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius.
