Muzoracle: The Tarot of Music


Wait; hold till further notice.

In a musical score, a fermata (fayr-MAH-tah) placed over a note or rest indicates a pause or hold; the pulse of the music is temporarily suspended until the conductor resumes it.

Fermata is a Directive card, directing the querent to put things on hold, to delay until further instruction or insight is gleaned. It can also indicate a delay imposed from elsewhere.
