9 out of 10 times that I have pulled this card for a young lady, she was pregnant. I have learned to trust this card to mean that a new person is about to arrive. In the Raider-White deck, the world has a woman surrounded by the four beasts that stand next to the throne of God in the book of Revelations. I am certain, beyond a doubt that the person who was painted in that deck was pregnant at the time.

Why else would this card mean the arrival of the stork?

Perhaps because life must go on. If we look at the picture of our planet, what we see is a little round ball, kind of the same as you would find on a Christmas Tree. There are no boders, no lines, no squares. It’s all neat and round, like an egg. Perhaps that’s what the world really is: an egg. A very round and blue egg that some day might give birth to a universal consciousness reaching out to the creator of us all.

I can’t think much more about this card. It is simply complete as is.
