Two of Wands
-
I haven't had a psychic flash in a while while doing a tarot reading, so I had to share. I was doing a tarot spread and for the outcome, I got Ten of Swords, Nine of Pentacles, and Two of Wands. My eyes laid upon the "Two of Wands". I was using the Gilded Tarot and this poem immediately came to my mind. It describes this card so perfectly.
The Road Not Taken
TWO roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
