Generally, and as already mentioned in another thread on this card, the nine in the Bastons series is the only not to have floral additions - quite barren in comparison to the others.
In a reading, I have at times taken this to metaphorically indicate the winter of a deciduous plant. A deciduous plant has cycles of showing its leaves, flowering, fruiting, and shedding, only to internally prepare for its next phase of new leaves.
As a nine - a number I at times also personally associate with wishes and aspirations, it is a time to quietly go within and reflect, working through all that has already been fed, and begin to transform it to later bear fruit - though that is still three seasons away.
Attached is a Payen.
