Major Arcana • 3
The Empress
Fertility doesn't require permission—it happens on its own if you don't interfere. Your task isn't to control growth, but to create conditions. The world's abundance is already here, you need only reach out your hands.
You're trying to grow a garden on scorched earth or forgot to water what's already blooming. Fertility demands attention, but not force. Creativity suffocates under the weight of perfectionism.
The Empress knows: everything that grows will one day wither. But that's no reason to abandon the garden.
