The World
The Great World represents completion of one cycle and the beginning of another, marking a positive transition rather than a destructive ending. After receiving guidance from the Council of Animals, your progress has been evaluated and direction set according to your life goals. You have accomplished what you were meant to do, even if you don't fully realize it yet. It is time to look toward new horizons and embrace the magic that extends beyond your current boundaries.
Keywords
Return to the Portal
Here you are again, near the portal. The lessons of the forest and the experience you gained there have brought you to this point. The white deer is here to remind you that magic does not end at the forest's edge.
Expanded Vision
In the forest you see only what is nearby. In the great world you have a much more distant view—you see valleys, misty hills, winding roads, endless skies, and castles made of clouds. Other forests await you with new images and new trials, stronger spells and richer gifts.
The Call to Adventure
As one wandering beast said (as reported by Mr. Kenneth Grahame in 'The Wind in the Willows'): 'Accept the adventure, listen to the call, this moment may pass irretrievably! You need only slam the door, take a joyful step forward and you have already left the old life behind to enter the new!'
Positive Transition
One cycle ends and another begins. This is a positive card, not a destructive ending like the card of the strange tower. This is a card of destiny, where after the Council of Animals your progress was evaluated and direction was set in accordance with your life goals. You have done what you were meant to do, even if you don't fully realize it yet. The time has come to look toward new horizons.
Brief Meaning
Completion. Wholeness. Seeing the big picture. Connection with the world.
If You Look Closely
Not far from this place there is a hill. First climb there along the winding path to the standing stones. From there you can look back on your forest journey.
