22 Clematis

Trust, letting go

You’ve been holding on so tightly to your control of the world that your fingers are starting to ache. But here’s a thought… how about you try letting go? Not everything needs to be controlled and you may find that you’ve put enough safeguards in place to be able to support yourself even without clinging on so. You’ll naturally want to resist the feeling of falling, but you may find that a fall isn’t actually coming - and that it feels good to let go.

Momentum, support, reciprocity

The clematis grows across any surface it is given, eager to rise and reach towards the blazing summer sun. Its spiraling vines grab onto any opportunity that appears, putting its flowers in the best position to drink in the rain and warmth. This card symbolizes movement and momentum, a push towards the best position that will help you achieve your goal. Just be sure to remember those who held you up on your race to the finish.
