@sophieactual I hadn't thought about the question of agency, or perhaps presence (if I'm understanding/intuiting well), with respect to this card, but the distinction is important, I agree very much. I'm now wondering which decks have the property you mention. Do you have any in particular?

My knowledge of qabalah in general is restricted to what I've been able to glean from the margins and so is very very partial and unsystematic, but what you say here makes me want to dig deeper very much.
