I drew this as my daily card today. Here are some of my observations so far:
An Elf is kneeling at a pool of magical water. He is stadfastly looking ahead, seemingly assessing the situation ahead, focussed on his goal. He seems practical and level-headed. It looks like he has stopped at the pool to 'stock up' on rejuvanating energy from the magical waters to see him through the events which are to follow. He dangles his pendant into the magical water, something he has obviously done many times before, to assess what has gone before him - 'reading' the energy. He is electrically charged (white glow around him) ready for action at a moments notice. The spirits of the woods are adding their knowledge to the magical pool through their roots.
Not had much time to study this in depth yet, but pondering; why his 'charged energy' does not cover the whole of his body - his lower arms & hands, one knee & at least one foot are not 'charged'. Also, the stick to the right of his knee, some very squashed faces at the bottom of it, with a fairly cross face near the top.
Any thoughts anyone?
