Stranger

What it can mean

A stranger often represents an unknown or unacknowledged part of yourself — a quality you haven't yet owned. Friendly strangers can suggest new opportunities or people entering your life; threatening ones may mirror anxiety about the unfamiliar. Traditionally, a stranger can announce a visitor or news.

A question to sit with
