This card speaks to introspection.  A willingness to be present with oneself, without distraction, and take a long, hard look at the deeper truths that reside within.  No frills... and no fuss.  The bare naked truth.  Before we can be a "messenger of the Goddess" or the "messenger for healing," we must be willing and able to rest deeply in and come face to face with The Truth and reflect that Truth in Love.  In this, the healer is born, because the healer understands that he/she is purely a vessel... a "messenger," of Love.
