Card #112 — The Silence
“The pause before creation.”
The Silence is the sacred stillness before the first spark. It represents the void, the breathless hush, and the moment of infinite potential before life takes form. This card reminds you that emptiness is not absence—it is the womb of creation.
Message
When The Silence appears, you are being asked to rest in stillness. Answers may not yet be ready to reveal themselves, and forcing movement will only disrupt the natural rhythm. Instead, honor this pause. Trust that something new is gestating in the quiet, waiting to be born.
This card also reminds you that silence is a teacher. In the absence of noise, truth becomes clear. Do not rush to fill the void; let it speak in its own way, in its own time.
Affirmation
In silence, I find truth. In stillness, creation is born.
