On this medicine shield the power of the primal mother takes a central place. Her lifegiving vagina is surrounded by light-emitting snakes. Above the yoni three silver dolphins are placed and a thin moon. The phases of the moon are left-under. Middle-under the ovaria, painted with red sacred blood. The Indians called the female period a moon-time. The thirteen shelves tied to the ovaria represent the thirteen full-moons that the calendar year counts. Thirteen was for this reason the sacred number of the goddess.

When you drew this card, the tides in your life become more noticable. Man and woman have rhytms. The rhytm of the seasons influences us strongly. Are you looking for structure or rhytm? Everything in nature has a rhytm. This card shows you to watch your own rhytms with more attention. Eat regularly. Grant yourself the time and rest to recover from experiences. There is a time for activity as well as for rest. Is your rhytm of life ok? Do you grant yourself enough time to recover? Women are invited to have respect for their cycle. Not to ignore it, as is common in our hectic society, but to live it in an accepting and loving way.
