DELIGHT: You are now, the Kitsune are happy to share with you, in the midst of a moment of beauty – it is joyful, fun, uplifting, and you will feel so much happiness. For some people, this may seem trivial – that enjoyment and good times are not as serious as those moments when we walk with the shadows and discover more about our deeper aspects. This is not that time. This is now a time to come into the light – time to allow the moments of joy, the lightness of being that graceful state to be ours too, to have humor and play, music and sweetness all about us, and to laugh and be free. And this is the energy this card brings to you now. To be light, to be joyful, to be as the music from the flute is – high, and light, and sweet, and to know that every note has its moment, and will pass.
As you enjoy this time and smile, with pure uplifting energy shining from you, others will open up and feel this way too. It will be a simpler time, an easier time, a time when the heaviness of the world falls away, and you are ensouled, but in the most sparkling and naturally happy of ways. You will find others to share your happiness with, and it will be like a ripple upon water – spreading out and influencing so many. And the world needs this joy, dear one, and this is the gift of the Kitsune realm to you – a springtime for your soul. The Kitsune adore music, and fun, and dance, and joy! Let no one tell you that you are not serious enough. Let no one try to hold down your joy – bubble up, like spring beneath the earth, and shine out into the world.

SUNLIGHT AFTER DARKNESS: After a time of challenges and hurt, there comes a time when the sweet joys of light gently begin to return. They will steal into your life, so quietly that, for many, the signs of this beautiful change will go unnoticed. But with the turn of this card, you now know that the time of new light will be awakening in and around you. If you tune in, you will begin to see the signs – that there is a sweetness returning, that a smile or two fleets across your lips, that you awaken more easefully and greet the day with a sense that today will be a kinder, better place than yesterday. You will notice others responding to you warmly, and slowly, of so slowly, you will begin to believe that perhaps there is a way forward, and that you will once again find happiness.
It is too soon to speak of being exuberant or enthusiastic – but this tender, very fragile new time will grow when you tend to it, when you encourage it, and when you begin to notice that you are, at last, healing from the wounds life has dealt you. There will be no going back into the darkness. This is not temporary. You can trust this, and with your trust, it will gather strength and begin to take root. This sunlit time will grow brighter and become stronger, as you feed it with your belief and gratitude. So, do this, friend, and know that what was will never be again. For now, you are in the time of new light.

TO DANCE WITH JOY: You are not alone, beautiful soul, although you have felt alone so many times. When this card comes to you, Seeker, you know that there will soon be others who will join you, and together there will be festivities and creations, rituals that are joyous, and a sense of no longer being alone in a world where you one felt disowned. You move, and as you move, the world notices you. Your energy draws others closer to you, and they join you, attracted by the energy you radiate, as you dance the truth of your existence.
It is no one else’s dance and there are no laws to it, except that every step is a part of a story, and you are sharing with others, finally, more of who you are. There will be times when you are celebrated, when people remember what is important to you, when gifts are offered and when friendship’s hand is extended towards you. These are all coming towards you now, and all you need to do is allow yourself to finally be who you are amongst others. In this way, the people of your own soul tribe can find you, for they too have taken refuge in the forest of the Kitsune, and they are delighted that you, too, thought to hide there. And, within that honesty of revealing our soul’s truth, others can know us, and what was once too raw to share becomes simply the most beautiful vulnerability – the truthful, simple kind, without drama, that allows other to see their kinship to you.
