In a reading
Something from your past—a memory, a person, a simpler version of yourself—is resurfacing with a gentle pull toward innocence and warmth. This isn't about getting stuck in yesterday; it's about letting the sweetness of what was inform the richness of what is. You might reconnect with an old friend or rediscover a joy you thought you'd outgrown, and it will feel like coming home.
What the card shows
Two children play with cups in a garden. Nostalgia and innocence — reconnect with the past.
