This card is all about sweetness and fun. Community built by breaking bread (or in this case, cinnamon toast), and offerings of new friendship.
When Caelum first found Rasp and Elly out in the woods in their wild little contraption of a moveable house, they greeted her with an enormous plate of her favorite food: buttery gooey crispy crunchy cinnamon toast. They didn’t look much like the Pegasus she’d been hunting for, and yet Caelum had to admit that this kinda hospitality was a close second.
And there was something about these two. The wind stirring at the edges of their smiles. The cosmos in their eyes. They were strange and kind, and they didn’t seem to judge Caelum in the slightest, not even for being a grubby little daydreamer. Caelum had found some new friends.
If you’ve drawn this card, maybe it’s time to host a cozy gathering or accept an invitation, because this is an occasion to meet new friends, or let old friends know how much you appreciate them.
This card is all about drawing the circle of care and community wider and stronger. We don’t get to choose our families, but we can help the world make a lot more sense by choosing a good family of friends.
