THE FLY

Perseverance – Provocation
Stubbornness – Annoyance

In the image, a fly hovers in the air, its flight generating concentric ripples, much like a stone thrown into a pond. The image is adorned with two gold buttons, a metal of great value. The fly is small but persistent. It has no grandeur or charm, yet it is everywhere: it strikes, buzzes, annoys. Its strength lies not in power, but in constancy.

It symbolizes that which bothers us because we cannot ignore it, that which keeps returning until we are forced to face it. Sometimes it represents an annoying thought; other times, we are the fly to the world: uncomfortable, insistent, provocative. Its presence may indicate fruitful perseverance or sterile obstinacy. And just as its persistent buzzing reminds us that we haven’t taken out the trash, the Fly card also warns of problems that have lingered too long because we considered them small, marginal, insignificant, or simply forgot about them.

So, my dear one, if your subconscious has chosen this card, perhaps it wants to tell you that:

If the card speaks about you – Light

You are showing a constancy that can be useful, even if it is not always understood. Your way of insisting may be exhausting, but it allows you to achieve results where others would have already given up.

Questions for you
– In what way has your persistence been a resource that allowed you not to give up?
– What are you pursuing with determination, even if the world seems to ignore it?
– What provocation could capture attention?

If the card speaks about you – Shadow

You may be becoming insistent to the point of annoyance, or you may be lost in sterile obstinacy. Something buzzes in your mind that you cannot release, or you have become a nuisance to someone else.

Questions for you
– What thought continues to torment you even though it no longer helps you move forward?
– In what are you obstinately persisting, ignoring the signals inviting you to let go?
– Are you becoming a nuisance to yourself or others unintentionally?

If the card speaks about the world – Light

The world around you stimulates and provokes you, testing you with small challenges that help you stay alert. An uncomfortable situation may conceal an opportunity.

Questions for you
– What external provocation is helping you grow, even reluctantly?
– In what way is a persistent difficulty forcing you to awaken?
– What annoying stimulus is teaching you something useful?

If the card speaks about the world – Shadow

You are surrounded by irritating energies or repetitive environments that only disturb. It may be a person, a collective habit, or simply a worn-out context.

Questions for you
– What external annoyance have you endured for too long?
– Who or what buzzes around you, taking away clarity without confronting it directly?
– Have you forgotten to take out the trash, and that’s why there are flies around?
