The Page as a messenger

Each suit has four court cards: Page, Knight, Queen, and King. The Page is the youngest of them. He stands in place rather than riding or ruling, and looks at what he holds as if it were news or a task he has yet to understand.

In a reading the Page often brings word: a message, an offer, an interesting thought, a first meeting with a subject. This is news on a small scale. It has not yet become an event, but it already asks for your attention.
