☾The Core Meaning of Birds
Birds represents verbal communication in all its forms. Phone calls, emails, social media, interviews, meetings — any exchange of words is this card's theme. Because two birds are often depicted, it can also point to a dialogue between two people, or to a couple.
There is also a side of this card that reflects anxiety and worry. Just as birds chirp restlessly, small worries can circle round and round in your mind. In most cases, though, that worry turns out to be needless.
Birds can also represent an older couple, or two close companions. It can likewise signal that rumors or gossip are circulating, so be mindful of what you say.
