Card 108 — Darkness
Growth Happens as You Seek the Light
Darkness represents the unseen spaces where growth quietly begins. This card speaks to shadow, uncertainty, and the inner depths that must be entered in order for true transformation to occur. Darkness is not evil — it is fertile.
This archetype embodies introspection and courage. Darkness invites you to sit with discomfort, unanswered questions, and parts of yourself that have been avoided or misunderstood. Within these spaces, truth takes root.
Darkness appears when you are in a period of inner processing. This may involve grief, fear, doubt, or deep reflection. The card encourages patience and trust, reminding you that clarity often follows time spent in the dark.
At its core, Darkness teaches that light gains meaning through contrast. When you honor the shadow rather than resist it, growth unfolds naturally.
Core Message:
Do not fear the dark — it is where growth quietly begins.
