Water is, of course, related to the astrological water signs (Cancer, Scorpio Pisces), and has a lot of the same traits – Like actual water, these signs can have hidden depths. They can be refreshing, or an overwhelming tsunami of emotion.
The actual definition of this specific card in the Cartouche is a little different. It speaks of the emotions, fluidity, sympathy, and an ability to reflect life. Water is flexible. It can be gentle, it can be dynamic. So if you’ve chosen Water as the best way to feel more grounded, then it’s likely that one or more of these traits make up what will be most effective to achieve this. You sympathise and empathise, while deeply understanding the other point of view. And you want to be understood too.
From a physical point of view, actually spending time in or near water would be an excellent way to ground as well.
Something to remember about Water – even when it’s flowing gently along, it can wear down the hardest rock over time. This card would indicate an ability to go with the flow, while at the same time, moving towards a specific desired outcome.
