TEN OF PENTACLES
Threshold -- The culmination of a project. The gathering of generations, family, and groups of people. The end of a cycle leading to unexpected new places. A door opens. Opportunity beckons. Seeing through the trick of the material world. Embracing the interconnectivity of all things.
SHADOW: What price do we pay when a door opens for us, yet we decide we are unworthy to enter? Animals, trees, and flowers evolve without second-guessing themselves. Allow internal resistance to dissipate. Say yes to what appears before you.
A door of life opens inside an ancient tree. This is the tree of creation, the oldest tree in the wood. Gnarled roots spread like hair beneath the tree. The Dark Wood is infinite. Its paths and doorways lead into ever-evolving fecundity, richness of possibility, and growth. The tree invites us to leave our material senses and concerns to move deeper into the experience of reality. The tree leads us out of the material realm of pentacles that have fully manifested to their ultimate destiny. The cycle is complete. Undiscovered suits, multiple dimensions, and wild possibilities await. Everything you have ever experienced is just a hint of what is to come.
Animals gather at the tree, culminating like the pentacles. The crows reflect the supernatural ability of bilocation, being in two places at once. Spiders weave the web of fate inside the tree. A mama cat and her kitten reflect generations of feline mystery. Bats reflect initiation and shamanic death. The senses are how we find ourselves in this world. They are also how we leave it behind.
