A huge butterfly dominates this card, it just sits there with wings outstretched as if it's sitting on a flower sunning itself. It has no colour, it's wings and body are black and white. On each of it's lower wings is a small pentacle and they are linked by a lemniscate, a figure 8 on it's side that is the only thing on the whole card that's coloured. Like many things in this deck the lemniscate is coloured in rainbow colours that give the impression of movement around the lemniscate (well to me they do ).;
Whenever I see a butterfly on a tarot card I think of transformation, change and fragility that is often much less fragile than it appears and is in fact quite strong. In many decks that are based on the Rider-Waite-Smith deck butterflies are used to decorate the Swords / Air court cards and so to symbolise the element of air which is light, quick to change and is also deceptively strong.
This card makes me think of the 2 Coins in TdM decks and also of the Crowley Thoth 2 of Disks. It says change to me - physical things coming together (coins) to cause change..

I've been getting this card a lot lately and I think it's telling me that I'm in a time of physical changes and transformation...
I'd love to hear what anyone else thinks of this card.
