Earth Compass Tarot – Water Path (West)
9 of Water – The Wish
Keywords: Fulfillment • Gratitude • Contentment • Alignment
The Meaning
The Wish is the heart’s exhale — the feeling of being at peace with who you are and where you are.
It represents emotional satisfaction born not from fantasy, but from alignment.
You have released what no longer serves you, and now your energy flows freely into joy, love, and purpose.
This is the moment when desires and emotions meet harmony.
What you once longed for is either manifesting or already present in subtle form.
The 9 of Water invites you to pause, recognize your blessings, and receive the beauty you’ve created.
Your wish has always been more than a single event —
it is the deep knowing that you are whole, right now.
Joy is your natural state.
And gratitude is the key that keeps your heart open to more.
