Purpose
On the card, Purpose means “to have meaning and direction in my life”. On Even Over’s map of values, it is in the area called Self-direction–thought: thinking for yourself and developing your own ideas and abilities. That area is on the openness to change side of the map.
How it was placed
The map has no close match for this word, so it sits with a near one. Meaning and direction in life has no single counterpart on the circle; it is placed with deciding for yourself what matters. The placement is our own and provisional.
