Card 79 — Forgiveness
Release What Binds You
Forgiveness represents the conscious release of resentment, anger, or lingering emotional ties that keep you bound to the past. This card speaks to freedom — not through forgetting, but through choosing not to carry what continues to wound you.
This archetype embodies liberation through understanding. Forgiveness does not excuse harm or erase accountability; instead, it removes the emotional weight that keeps pain alive within you. It is an act of self-healing, not surrender.
Forgiveness appears when you are ready to loosen a grip that has grown heavy. This may involve forgiving another, forgiving yourself, or releasing expectations that no longer serve you. The card encourages compassion without self-betrayal.
At its core, Forgiveness teaches that peace requires release. When you let go of what binds you, space opens for renewal and clarity.
Core Message:
Let it go — freedom begins with release.
