From the Greenwood Tarot, the Greenman (Emperor); from the Rune Cards, Hearth/Peordh:
The Greenman was an environmental guardian of forests and woods, a force with the ability to enrich and revivify nature. As a symbol of the Emperor, he reminds me of leaders who must bring their communities back to life after they have been decimated by war, storms, fires or floods. Such a leader's first task is to bring hope and comfort, and then he initiates a plan for rebuilding. The Hearth/Peordh rune emphasizes the need to balance the hard work of restoration with times of laughter, relaxation and play. These 'down times' can keep our spirits up and remind us of our connection so that cooperative attitudes will prevail.
Laughter, which is present in many kinds of playful activities, releases those same feel-good hormones. The act of simply laughing with others will also foster a sense of camaraderie and strengthen your relationships, too. ~NBC Today
