Today, it's one of the most Spiritual cards in the deck, The Star. I've chosen the image from the Alchemical Tarot as this card is all about alchemy - which is, in turn, about transformation.
On a very obvious level, alchemy is the transmutation of lead into gold. But in Spiritual terms that means transmitting ourselves - eventually, perhaps, into Gods or Goddesses. As a Major Arcanum, it speaks of big changes. So for the World/Gaia, it speaks of the changes of the world today in which the lower energies come to the surface to be faced and cleansed.
How does this card affect you though? What aspects of you are coming to the surface, asking to be worked with? This is No. 17, which transforms to the number 8, a "lucky" number in some systems - and certainly a number of huge power ...
