Oh my. This was a tough cookie ;). The next tarot card is finally done :). 

I chose a white-blue praying mantis (an air animal) to represent this card. It is an ancient guide for those who need direction. The card symbolizes indecision, therefore the flying fish are flying around the mantis in different directions on each side. The arms are crossed and it is holding a sword with intricate patterns on each side for stability. A blindfold, put on by itself,  is there to help to focus, meditate, and not be distracted by too much chaos. Difficult decisions can be easier made this way, the mantis hasn't found a solution yet. Two legs are standing on a glowing crescent moonlike shaped raft. The third leg crosses the fourth in a relaxed way. The fourth leg is dipping into the water - or a small Milky Way galaxy? Stars or water bubbles are nearby. The background color changes from blue to warm colors. Everything is in flow. Chaos meets peace. 

The flying fish are also part of my Justice card. Both cards are connected through the zodiac sign libra. So I thought this would be a great fit.

Many thanks for your support <3.
