Where this card comes from

The Golden Dawn gave every card a planet, a sign or an element, and the Rider–Waite–Smith deck was drawn to that system. That zodiac is tropical. This site’s astrology is sidereal, roughly 24° away, so Seven of Wands being Mars in Leo describes the card and not your chart.
