## Symbolism

A mature woman in a grey-green dress sits with her arm resting on the back of a chair, her gaze serious and distant. Beside her stand a dressing mirror and a red hatbox on the floor. The scene suggests a life already lived, in which she is self-sufficient and looks inward.

## Meaning

The Widow speaks of someone who has lived through a loss and learned to carry on alone, with maturity and independence. It can also mark a time of mourning, pause and taking stock before starting again. Next to another card, it gives that card's theme a more sober, more seasoned tone.

## Love

There is a period of withdrawal or an ending still to be processed, and no hurry to fill the gap. When the heart opens again, it does so with a clearer sense of what it wants.

## Work & money

You tend to do well working independently and drawing on your own experience. In finances, the card asks for prudence, organisation and care with what you have, without fear of relying on yourself.

## As a person

A mature woman who has lived through a loss, independent and reserved, or someone going through mourning.

## Advice

Respect your time of mourning and lean on the experience you have already gathered.
