This
 youngster is always up for an adventure, no matter what time of day or 
where it might lead.  The mythological beasts over his/her head indicate
 a dreamer who envisions exciting challenges and escapades.  However, 
this Page often has a "flavor of the week," flitting from one interest 
to the next.  Enthusiasm waxes and wanes, not allowing any in-depth time
 spent with one curiosity before moving on to the next.  In a child's 
world, this lack of sticking to any one thing is fairly normal; it gives
 children a chance to explore the world.  In adults, it becomes a way to
 flip the channels of one's life, constantly looking for some new form 
of entertainment.

The
 combination of the Page of Wands and this card made me flash back to my
 junior high school days.  I begged to play basketball and to be allowed
 to go to basketball camp, but was told I was too short to be any good 
(and therefore would never get a scholarship).  But here's what my 
parents didn't understand - I just wanted to play because I loved the 
game, not because of any long range plans.  Now that I'm much older than
 that kid in junior high, I find it easier to be cynical of other 
people's dreams or ideas.  Will it make money or just cost money?  I've 
forgotten that sometimes aspirations need to be nurtured if only because
 they keep the spark of passionate enthusiasm from being snuffed out.
