5 - The Ancestor
The scene is set at day break - a new day or beginning, a reawakening or awakened soul. The new moon re-emphasizes the new beginning.
One holds the wand of wisdom and drum, summoning all to gather and watch the sun rise. The two oak trees signifies a gateway, a path of new commitment, the point of no return, or a reminder that you are on a journey, that will have a start and ending.
The guardian of the sacred heart of the land, he summons you with the drum beat. It could be an unconscious beat that leads you to take a path, and to see it to the end. It could also be a beat to warm your heart, a reminder to end that hibernation that you have been in, reawakening the abundant life.
This card reminds you to take that leap of faith and acknowledge the path that you've taken - like it or not, the journey has already started. The new year is coming.. Trust that inner voice, listen to your own intuition and inquisitive nature.
Happy Boxing Day!!
