Butterfly Cocoon
Suspension
Arcana definition
I hold a lot of knowledge within me, I feel energies, having gone through many teachings and developed my abilities. But I lack the strength to be born, to manifest into this world, to truly act. I feel too comfortable in this state, as if I am inside the womb. I am ripening like a fruit. No. Not today, not now. I will wait until I am seen, appreciated, called, acknowledged, and noticed.
Or perhaps I have become an overripe fruit that now poses a threat to the mother? And I am the cause of the decay of what has tightly wrapped the comfort zone. I smell the stench of decomposition… No, but I haven’t yet absorbed her love, her blood, her warmth! I am a stone that depends on the heat of the sun. I am a lizard that moves only when its rays glide over my body and warm me. I dwell constantly in my precious past, and I always need external attention, the love of loved ones, the acceptance of the mother.
Advice
A state of suspension. Maybe I lack the fierceness to break out of familiar boundaries once and for all, to step into the light with the cry of a newborn, a light so magnificent it stings the eyes. To accept my path, to push through, to take the first real breath, and, exhaling the slippery water, allow my feet to enjoy the grass, my hands to absorb fire, and my heart to open to the love of this vast world that is always reflected within me.
The time for transition has come. You have everything you need.
