Sapling of Branches

harvest · prophecy · youthful enthusiasm · new growth

Upright

You are young in this — green, eager, full of sap. That is not a weakness; it is a gift. The sapling grows faster than the ancient tree and bends where the elder might break. Bring your fresh energy to the harvest, and do not apologise for your inexperience.

Reversed

Enthusiasm without grounding is just noise. You may be rushing ahead without roots, or mistaking excitement for readiness. The vine bears fruit only when it has climbed something solid. Find your support before you reach for the sun.
