The card

Light gathers in the clouds above him and funnels down into the soft unclosed place at the crown of his skull, entering through the one part of him that has not yet sealed. It is not a wound and there is nothing frightening about it; it is simply an opening that has not finished becoming bone. His hands lie loose and open at his sides. This card names the condition that makes all the rest of it possible, and quietly notes that the condition is temporary.

To sit with

What in you has closed that was once soft?

Where is there still an opening where something new could get in?
