The Letter Card Meaning

Have you ever had a penpal?

I did. When I was a kid I would peer into our PO box hoping to see a colorful envelope from my friend. I would jump up and down as I tore through the envelope to see what was written within.

Now, as an adult, things have changed. I often put off checking the mail because of the humdrum nature of the letters I receive, bills!

The Letter card can represent an actual letter, documentation, news, an invitation, or paperwork in general. It can also represent digital communication such as an email, text, or posts on social media. When locating lost objects, the envelope on this card is utilized and can represent a pocket.

This is a fairly straight forward card - don’t overthink it!
