The Star card:
I invite the muse and offer my creativity as a gift to the world. Authenticity without illusion. I receive guidance from nature through this divine distillation.
The symbols:
Xtabentún:
In the Mayan language, xtabentún translates to "vines growing on stone". It refers to the Turbina corymbosa (Christmas vine), a morning glory with a star shaped center whose seeds possess hallucinogenic properties.
Intoxication and Divinity: The liqueur made from this flower is known as the "elixir of the Maya gods". Historically, it is linked to the fermentation of honey by melipona bees, and its consumption was a way to achieve a trancelike state, connecting the user to the spirit world.
