Torch

-11.  Torch

The Torch represents the charismatic leadership and influence of a beloved teacher who is an influence for good. Imagine the human characteristics of Gandhi, Mother Teresa, Jesus, Siddhartha, Muhammed, or Buddha. Any person who embodies the Torch is a teacher or servant in the highest sense of the word. If the Torch has visited you today, you may have taken up the task of being a light for a noble cause. You are committed to acts of kindness and service to your fellow man. Do not be alarmed by the attention you might draw to yourself at this time. Others are taking notice of your leadership, influence, and radiant charisma. Remember, the Torch provides light to the world and a beacon for others to follow.

If this card was pulled with the intent to provide advice:

Be a source of light for yourself and/or others. Walk the path of the humble leader. Use your charismatic influence for noble works of kindness that uplift your fellow man.
