It is what "motivates" us...creates ambition.
They also represent sex and sexual relationships.
People who are wands tend to have light brown hair and hazel or green eyes.
The are trustworthy, ambition, motivated, and usually very loyal.
Because of their creativeness, and natural ability to organize, you will find them to be very busy with meetings, activities and social events.
They draw people towards them with their warmness and attractive personality.
They are down to earth and are lovers of nature.
When there are many wands in a spread, it indicates that there is a lot of activity going on. Specific cards will help you to identify if the efforts and initiatives are worthwhile or instrumental to you.
To me the wands indicate activity, travel plans, thoughts, ideas, and effort put forth.
When I see an absence of wands in a spread, it usually indicates to me that the person is not putting forth much effort, and that they seem to lack the motivation necessary to accomplish their goals.
Wands to me, also represent family or family members.
This suit represents our heart. Our love, our happiness.
Our emotions.

People who are cups, are kind, sweet, loving, understanding and nuturing.
They tend to be light hair and light eyes, blue or green.
They love with all their heart, and it easily broken as they tend to be sensitive.
Sometimes tend to be a bit "selfish" and "self-centered", but that is not something that they would recognize readily.
Only a few cups in the spread would indicate two things to me, either that person is not one to "wear their heart on their sleeve", or they are very good at keeping their emotions to themselves, and not comfortable with displaying them.
