Card Meaning

At the heart of the Child of Origin is the very first starting point. It comes before any plan or preparation — the origin point “before zero.” It is trust in the blank page: allowing yourself not yet to be anyone, not yet to have decided anything, and knowing that simply “being” is enough.

This boundless potential is both a gift and a warning. If you cannot live with the blank space in a healthy way, you may hover forever out of fear, or leap blindly in haste.
