Upright Meaning

You stand at the edge of something entirely new, and the universe is asking you to leap. Trust the journey even when you cannot see the landing — your innocence and openness are your greatest assets right now.

Reversed Meaning

You may be holding back from a necessary leap, paralyzed by overthinking or fear of looking foolish. Alternatively, you might be rushing forward without any grounding — consider whether your spontaneity has become recklessness.
