Air is, of course, related to the astrological air signs (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius), and has a lot of the same traits – Like actual Air itself, the Air signs hold strong traits of action, ideas, and movement. They are the “winds of change.” Invisible to the eye, but if a gust of air energy is directed at you, you move.
The actual definition of this specific card in the Cartouche is a little different. It speaks of intellect, travel, communication, and speed. There’s a strong link with commerce here, as well. Air is the communicator and the mover of energies. It moves matters along and it blows away any cobwebs that might be hanging around. Air is also associated with the speed of thought and therefore with the retention of knowledge.
Air is representative of change. Like Air, if you can balance this Chakra, you’ll blow away the cobwebs and you’ll grasp the implications of any situation before the other person has finished their sentence. Air is a card that is linked to thought and clarity. You already know the answer, you just need to sit quietly enough to focus and hear it. So balancing this Chakra will help you get back into touch with your intuition.
