Oh my, this is another of the cards that I'd list as among my favourites in this deck...
At the bottom of the card is a tangle of sticks or wands. They are upward pointing and surrounded by darkness - to me they look quite threatening. The top half of the card is pure, brilliant white and in that white, flying upwards is a blue / green butterfly - absolutely beautiful in it's simplicity...
It looks as if it's escaped from the tangle of branches that would have ripped it to shreds.
So, since 6s relate to The Lovers, this card is about making the choices that take us away from the difficulties of the 5s towards a more balanced and harmonious place. Wands to me are about actions so this is the actions we take to get to a more balanced place. This card for me is often about making achievable goals and about taking things one step at a time to get to where we want to be... The butterfly must have had to be careful or it's wings would have been ripped so that goes well for me with that interpretation...
Because it's linked to The Lovers, it's also about getting out there and having relationships with others and now the butterfly is free to do that. It's also about vulnerability and trust... When you tell someone you love them, you make yourself vulnerable and the butterfly also reminds me of that.
This, for me, is a card of hope, of release from danger and of feeling good to be free of things that were holding us back..
