What this card is
A young person in a flowered tunic stands by the sea holding a cup, and a fish has popped its head out of it, an absurd and delightful surprise they are regarding quite calmly. The card is about sensitivity, unguarded feeling, and messages from the part of you that does not use words. It often shows a small creative impulse or a tender piece of news. Nothing here is worldly or defended.
