This card shows a zoomed in view of a small girl fairy sitting in an Orchid blossom. This orchid blossom is one of a vast field of orchid blossoms. The girl has a pensive look on her face and is holding a globe in one hand that is emanating "cosmic energies." According to the LWB, these cosmic energies represent "the glorious achievements of all creation and the immutable movements of life."
How I see this card is that it portrays the breadth and the depth of both the outer world, represented by the orchid field, and the inner world, represented by the globe. The globe shows the fairy's connnection to the ground of all being, the Universe as it truly is.
There is an interesting note about this card in the LWB. Nathalie was pregnant when she was designing this card. She believed that her baby was going to be a girl, so that was what she painted in the card. The card alludes to an old French story that girls are born in flowers and boys are born in cabbages. As it turned out, her baby was a girl, and she dedicated this card to her.
