Hi green,

I think the snail means literally to SLOW DOWN. In receiving this card, the snail could be saying whatever you have to do, do it more slowly. If you accept your past and live in the present, and do not stress or struggle with the slowness of it all, the insight you gain will carry you into the future of your choice.

Another thought that just came to me.....patiently, quietly and conscientiously pave the way for future success...
