Source

23. Source

Source is the fountain from which all youth, vitality, and creativity flow.  It represents initiative, freshness, joy, fertility, and sustenance.  It is the creation of an original, innovative product.  It is the inspiration drawn from the well of contemplation and connection to higher consciousness.  It is the project that has been fermenting, percolating, or gestating and is now birthing and coming to life.  It is that which has never been done before.  Like water coming from a mountain spring, it is pure, non-polluted, non-recycled, non-treated, original Source.  In the card we see a woman hanging from the heavens, her hair becomes a river in which people frolic and dance.  She has six breasts, representing her role to give and sustain life.  If you have been visited by Source today, you dwell in a charmed state.  You are experiencing exuberance and are giving or receiving inspired, fluid support.  It is likely you have become a Source for your inner self or others.  Celebrate in the fountain of creativity and ideas that are springing forth to you now.
