@deamerqvq you give me... mild parasitiforme/tick vibes?? NOT IN THE BAD WAY . you just strike me as small round friend shaped
@loz-the-noob collembolans, fun fact they used to be considered insects because of them having 6 legs so they were grouped together but later on they discovered they were different so theyre now in their own little group!

The Eight of Antennae card surges with themes of swift motion, unbridled energy, and the rapid progression of events. It symbolizes a moment when life accelerates, propelling us into a flurry of action and change. It reminds us that in the midst of life's swift currents, there's an opportunity to harness this momentum and direct it toward our goals.
The minuscule yet remarkable globular springtail is a testament to the beauty of speed and agility in nature. Springtails are known for their remarkable jumping ability, propelling themselves with astonishing speed when threatened, as though they've harnessed the very essence of motion itself. This reminds us of the power of swift, decisive action in our own lives. Additionally, these tiny creatures have an invaluable role in soil ecosystems. They aid in the decomposition of organic matter, contributing to nutrient recycling—a subtle reminder that even the tiniest actions can have significant impacts, aligning with the card's message of rapid progress.
Incorporating the essence of this card into our lives involves recognizing the momentum of change and using it to our advantage. Life’s rapid pace need not overwhelm us. Like the springtail, we can move with agility, adapt swiftly, and embrace opportunities as they arise. Just as the springtail uses their unique ability to navigate their environment and evade predators, we can apply our own skills and adaptability to maneuver through life's challenges.
Overall, this card teaches us to harness the momentum of the present, to take flight toward our goals, and to adapt swiftly when change is upon us. In a world brimming with unexpected twists and turns, the springtail underscores the importance of embracing progress and using our energy wisely. They remind us that even the smallest acts can create ripples of change, echoing the profound impact of quick, and deliberate action in our lives.

fun fact to the 0 insect/arthropod likers following me
millipedes and centipedes are not insects! they are arthropods yes but they arent insects because hexapods/insects have three pairs of legs while they have a certain set of legs per segment! theyre actually myriapods :3
i guess it really depends on what you mean insect as but , the more u know

How old are insects?
The most primitive living insects are thought to be bristletails (see below), also called jumping bristletails, which are placed in the Order Archaeognatha (Class Insecta) (Grimaldi & Engel, 2012).  These primitive little wingless insects – not to be confused with silverfish (Zygentoma), which are also very old – have persisted since at least the mid-Devonian epoch (398–385 million years ago…
