“Everything must grow”

The Market

The Market is both nurturing and devouring-mother of prosperity and patron saint of overextension. She promises abundance without end, yet consumes all in her pursuit of perpetual growth. Drawing this card signals expansion, opportunity, and the quiet tyranny of scale.

Upright

  • Abundance
  • Success
  • Creation
  • Expansion

Reversed

  • Greed
  • Saturation
  • Collapse disguised as harvest

Growth is the opiate of capital.
