In a Reading

The age of puberty, seduction and lack of experience, the discovery of desire and sexual power. Enough energy to heal and regenerate. To grow to full term. She reminds us that the sexual and creative power we channel are divine, cosmic energy. She can be creativity, the feminine parts of our being or a man’s need to get in touch with his feminine side. She represents adolescence, one who is unable to recognize the consequences of his or her actions. When drawn in a reading for an older person, this card can mean the rebirth of a potency thought long ago lost. She may represent a new love, a seductress. She is a warm-hearted, powerful woman who can enjoy domination.

She may also be the harbinger of a newly discovered sexuality and the uncontrollable, juvenile attraction for a partner previously thought taboo, the rebirth of young love.

Negative meanings can be a female energy that was blocked in childhood, sterility, a missed opportunity, or frustration. She can also represent a resentful, malicious, young woman.
