Two of Wands as Reconciliation (Upright & Reversed) Tarot Card Meaning

The Two of Wands is the card of planning, making decisions, leaving comfort, and taking risks. The card features a man standing on top of a castle and looking down at a miniature globe.

The Two of Wands reminds us that when we want to make progress in life and relationships, we have to take that first step into the unknown.

Reversed Two of Wands as Reconciliation

If you are asking about how your ex feels about reconciling with you, and you draw Two of Wands reversed, it means they feel stuck between wanting a reconciliation and not seeing reconciliation as a realistic or reasonable possibility. Since wands are the suit of passion, your person could feel quite fiery and passionate toward you. They could be a bit obsessed with the idea of you. They want to take concrete action, but they somehow feel powerless.

Two of Wands reversed as reconciliation is a sign of re-entering a failed relationship with no clear idea how to go about it, only to repeat past missteps. One or both parties have not done any introspection whatsoever, and no effort is being made to make any compromises or resolve past issues. When you draw this card in a reading, be mindful, as this could indicate a quick hook up with no promise of further commitments. If you know that your ex has a tendency to do this and you’re not interested in a short-term fling, make sure you set firm boundaries with them.

When your ex thinks about reconciliation with you, they feel hopeless. They may want to get back together, but they feel like there is no roadmap to making the relationship go in the right direction. In the reverse, this could also indicate your person feeling powerless. If your ex has had control issues in the past, they realize that they no longer have control over you. This person now recognizes that your relationship may have been an unhealthy one, although perhaps they don’t quite recognize the full extent of the role they played in cultivating that unhealthy atmosphere.

If you’ve recently split up, Two of Wands reversed means your ex is certainly not yet in a headspace where you can talk to them about the possibility of reconciliation. They are a little off balance. Perhaps they had future plans with you or a lot more committed to the relationship than you assumed, which led them to feeling as though they’ve been thrown off track of their life’s path. They might consider reconciling with you in the future. However, given that this card has appeared in the reverse, it would be better to give this person space to cool down and let them make the first move when they’re ready.

If you’ve been in separation for a while, Two of Wands reversed means your ex thinks about how the two of you had different visions and goals for your future together. If it’s been years, they’re wondering if you’ve changed or maybe they’ve changed. They may have recently looked you up and seen that nothing has changed in you, and they are not very optimistic about a future with you. In some cases, it could be that your ex no longer believes they have a chance to be included in your future.

If the two of you are still considering whether or not you should break up, Two of Wands reversed means you cannot seem to get on the same page when it comes to your goals. Perhaps you prefer vastly different hard-to-merge lifestyles. Your partner obviously still has passion for you. Perhaps they feel intimately compatible with you, yet still stuck and unable to move forward. There could be some anxiety regarding the uncertainty of your future together.
