Card Description and Core Meaning

A warrior comforts his weeping friend while valkyries soar above them. She wears the crown of Anubis—guardian of the gates to the underworld. You can identify with both the soldier and the valkyrie. If you act quickly, you will be able to make a life-changing decision. It will have certain consequences, but if you don't take control into your own hands, life itself will do it for you. Change is inevitable—and it will be like thunder from a clear sky. But this doesn't mean that something will change for the worse; even if the changes are not caused by your actions, they can generate a tremendous surge of inspiration that you need. The veils will be torn away—and the path will become clear.

Reversed Meaning

You are at an impasse. You yourself must give momentum to your life, otherwise there is a risk of finding yourself in a state of stagnation. It's time to turn to inner motivation, kindle the flame, and make the right choice. If you have long hesitated to take a risk that you will still have to accept anyway, perhaps now is the time. Act, even if you're afraid to take risks!
