The World
The World represents completion, accomplishment, and the successful end of a major life phase, inviting reflection and gratitude. It acts as a rite of passage that celebrates what has been achieved and encourages honoring the journey while opening the door to new beginnings and broader horizons, including travel or relocation. Reversed, it often points to procrastination, unfinished business, or reluctance to close chapters, signaling the need to identify open energetic tabs and bring things to conclusion. The reversed card also urges a wider perspective and trust in the unfolding journey, suggesting that hindsight will reveal the purpose of the current challenges.
