Restlessness

From the Anna K. Tarot, the Page of Wands; from the Meditation Cards, Energy Use:

          Have you seen the t-shirt that says "Runs with scissors?" It was made for this Page. He's an extreme risk-taker, boundary-breaker and adventure-seeker. He simply can't leave things alone without investigating and poking at them a bit. Already he's scouting out an escape route from the castle so he can go explore the countryside. The Page of Wands would immediately understand the thoughts of  Ursula K. Le Guin, "I am tired of safe places, and roofs, and walls around me." He will never be a boring child, and he definitely wears out any guardian that tries to keep up with him. The card Energy Use is paired with a poem from Rumi:

You have the energy of the sun in you, 

but you keep knotting it up at the base of your spine. 

You're some weird kind of gold

 that wants to stay melted in the furnace,

so you won't have to become coins.

What is it that makes that Page never want to grow up? Does he fear responsibility will take all the thrills and fun out of life? What might help is for him to discover a passionate interest to channel his energy in so that it isn't wasted as restlessness. But that would be a whole, separate post...
