From the Vision Quest Tarot, the Mother of Fire (Wands); from the Bird Signs/Ascension to Paradise Cards, Barbet:
To control fire is to tame a force that defies captivity.
—Nelson DeMille
The Mother of Fire/Wands is confident, passionate and inspirational. Yet she has a mature side to this fiery personality. Fire rarely moves in a straight line; it runs along the ground and up trees, using the wind to send embers to untouched areas. This Mother/Queen is not deterred if she is in the middle of a project and her plan hits a roadblock. She bypasses the hissy fit and moves on to Plan B, knowing the trait of adaptability will serve her objective better. Barbet birds have stiff, hair-like bristles that surround their beaks and eyes, which act as protective shields and sensory tools. This bird implies a need to stay tuned to what we are currently experiencing. If we meet an impediment to our progress, understanding how and where things went off course can help us correct the problem instead of wasting time by insisting things should not be this way.
