3 of wands...

And all four of the Aces - you haven't got it yet, just the seed that will become it in time.

The hanged man for sure. Nine of wands. Seven of cups. Page of cups. Two of swords. King of swords. Seven of pentacle. Page of pentacles. King of pentacles

I definitely see Temperance as waiting. Waiting for exactly the right moment/timing is everything, take a careful approach. 2 of Swords for sure, like holding off for the moment/weighing the options, and 8 of Swords more in a sense of waiting out of fear, being afraid to take any action.

Justice to me means stalemate....sort of waiting

3 of Wands ... the man is 'waiting for his ship to come in'.

In a way the knight of pentacles : stay focused and be patient

Funny- I was just reading an interpretation of the Moon card that said it meant being patient through the phases of gestation (the card's association with pregnancy and menstruation, cycles of the tide, etc.)
And it might be worthwhile to try to contrast these with "cards of action" like the Magician or the Knight of Swords to get a better fix on them.
