In a reading

You’re seeing something clearly for the first time in a while. Take the offer, and be ready to cut it off quickly if it isn’t right.

Deeper meaning

Clouds only halfway up her body

She only has clouds halfway up her body, so she’s looking forward into the future clearly for the first time in a long time. That partial quality is the point of her. The fog is receding, it isn’t gone. This isn’t generic clarity, it’s the moment it starts to lift. She’s my card of being cautiously optimistic, because she has her hand up and her sword up at the same time. She’s willing to receive something into her life, and if it isn’t right she’ll cut it off very quickly. She’s a fast decision maker, and that’s a useful thing to borrow if something is being offered to you right now.

In the good stuff

Clear for the first time in a while, and making decisions fast.
