Five of Water

I will let healing flow through me and move me out of depression. I love the five of water card from the GaianTarot. It's main colors are blue0grey---my favorite color----the color of my car BabyBlue---and feature a young woman in foggy mist on the shores of a lake. Today I am not feeling overly depressed--looking forward to 2 days off from work. But I suppose there is always an underlying chord of unhappiness here. Unhappiness with my working life---and not entirely certain how to change it.

The woman in the card holds an empty blue-grey bowl----wears a blue-grey robe. It is all calm and stillness---the card is self-contained---one of the few cards that has definite edges that does not spill over its borders inviting the card reader in.

I never read this card as negative, though. It is more self-reflective, calm. peaceful. Everything does't have to be sunshine and light. An empty moment, a pause, a stillness.....hands open ...waiting to be filled.
