Imagery

On this card, we see a woman in a fantastical scene. Reclining on a bed of clouds in the sky, her long chestnut hair billows weightlessly. She gazes upward at seven shining stars, symbolizing opportunities and choices she can make in life. With her pointing hand, the woman selects one star, but is it the right choice? The chosen star might not unveil the opportunity she dreams of. The woman needs to awaken from this fanciful state of illusions and focus on what's good for her.
