Single-card meaning
With the lily, we really find ourselves seeing two faces of the same card - faces that are profoundly paradoxical - which gives the lily card it’s beauty. You can almost say, that the lily card suffers from a bit of a madonna-whore complex. It can represent the greater struggle of femininity to walk the line between passionate sensuality and gentle innocence.
When you see the card in a reading, it can either signal all things associated with sex, pleasure, and material and bodily comfort or it can signal virtue, purity, and morality.
On one hand, it represents the side of life that experiences everything through our senses - touch, smell, taste particularly, and the enjoyment of all those things. It represents intense experiences that we have through our bodies, and feeling rooted and grounded within them.
On the other hand, the lily is rather ethereal - we find her representing all that is virtuous and good - mercy, justice, kindness, as well as pure intentions and a pure heart.
Questions for reflection
- What is the most pleasurable to me?
- What is the right thing to do?
- What is it to be good? What does virtue mean to me?
