The Q♦️ is our encouraging mother.
We have grown up as a human species in environments very different from the world we now inhabit which offers us all kinds of ease.
The Q♦️ encourages us to get up, to participate, to step into the dance. So just like the geese on the card, we might take our turn at the front and provide pockets of wind resistance for others, knowing we also can step back at other times when others take the lead.
This is being part of the web, the network of networks described by the physicist Fritjof Capra. Remember too It takes effort and energy to overcome our drive to sit still (we need both in balance) so have compassion when it does not feel easy.
We need wisdom to decide when to move and when to stay back.
Look at the card and then all the life around you.
Can you see life, even between the cracks in the concrete, finding its place?
