CONTEMPLATION


Walking between two trees, this figure holds two cups, both dark and light, in steady balance and deep contemplation as he proceeds slowly along his path. From the two cups issues the rainbow,  a symbol of the beautiful union of all colors in the spectrum of life.   Reiterating the meaning of Balance, this young man examines the deeper meanings of all that he encounters along his path now, seeking to understand beyond  surface appearances to the essential unity and relatedness of his experiences, making wise choices for the future based upon wise and open contemplation.

Reversed, the card can warn against dualistic or reactive thinking, impetuous action, and a rash and possibly disastrous course undertaken without first contemplating all possibilities.
