Judgement
The Council of the Beasts represents judgment, evaluation, and awakening to uncomfortable truths. This card signifies a moment of reckoning where your intentions and actions are assessed by natural wisdom. Success achieved through deception is worse than mistakes made through naivety. You must face yourself honestly, as enlightenment and self-discovery await those who approach with pure intentions.

The Journey's True Meaning
A journey through the forest can have enormous significance, or none at all, depending on what meaning you invest in it. Intentions are just as important as actions. Success achieved through deception is far worse than mistakes made through naivety.
The Council's Purpose
The council of animals gathers at fateful moments to evaluate a traveler's progress and future prospects. Each animal possesses its own unique wisdom and perspective. Each is pure and natural in essence, and they expect the same from you. Never think you can fool the council or yourself. The day of reckoning has come.
Facing the Truth
When you must appear before the Council of animals, it is a sign that you will have to learn some unpleasant truth. You will likely gain insight. You may realize new meaning in your life. At minimum, you will know yourself better, all your hidden depths. (To receive help from the Council, see the spread of the same name at the end of the book).
Brief Meaning
Judgment. Evaluation. Awareness. Forgiveness. Reckoning. Enlightenment.
If You Look Closely
The Council includes twelve animals, and every twelfth moon they change so that perspectives may shift. When fish join the Council, meetings are held at the sacred lake.
