21. MOUNTAIN ♣8

[Portrait Card] [Timing Card] [Mood Card]
Negative

[Imagery]
A deep-blue giant peak stands aloof, half-hidden in icy clouds, carving a silent and eternal contour beneath the starry sky. The dense, dim forest at its foot is its first barrier, declaring that the road is blocked. It seems close within reach, yet in truth it lies far beyond.

[Keywords]
Obstacle, enemy, delay, stagnation, stubbornness, restriction, coldness, cold war, alienation, geology, chronic illness, head-related illness

[Notes]
This card can represent an enemy. If it is close to the significator, it suggests difficulties or a strong opponent; if it is farther away, it carries the implication of a powerful backer or an important figure.

Treasure Guide – “Wall of the Mountain Pass · Power”
Summon this power to instantly raise an immovable mountain wall before a chosen target. It cannot be shattered, only waiting for its energy to slowly dissipate over time. It causes no injury; its pure effect is to block, isolate, and delay, forcing the target to completely stop moving forward or to change their route.
