The meaning
What the Stork card means
The Stork is change: moving house, improvement, return and any shift of position rather than an ending. It brings something new by repositioning what is already there. Traditionally it can also mean a pregnancy or the arrival of a child.
Stork in work and money
A promotion, relocation, a change of role or a better position. Add the Ship and the new job may be abroad; add the Mountain and the change is wanted but delayed.
Stork as a person
An adaptable, restless person who is always about to move.
Stork as advice
Welcome the change. The new position is better than the old one, even if it is unfamiliar.
Is the Stork a yes or no card?
Yes. Things are changing for the better — the Stork says yes, though the result may look different from what you expected.

An improving burdenThe Stork in a Grand Tableau
House 17 is row 2, column 8 — the inside of the grid, so it touches 8 cards: Snake, Coffin, Bouquet, Stars, Dog, Ring, Book and Letter.
The house of the Stork brings change and improvement. A card that falls here moves to a new stage or a new place: the House in this house is a move, the Fox a change of job, and the Heart a relationship entering a new phase.
