Fairytale Tarot Card The Tower As always, interested in a deck? Join the mailing list http://goo.gl/forms/sbHFRSMQOb The Tower card is about feeling safe and secure, then having your entire world, sometimes physically, upended. Your beliefs are shattered and the very foundation of your understanding is ruptured. I chose Rapunzel. The story goes that the prince and Rapunzel fall in love and plot to sneak away, but the witch catches wind of the plot (sometime by realizing Rapunzel is pregnant). She casts Rapunzel to the desert and flings the prince out to be blinded on thorns. This card is about how foolish and frankly arrogant they were to believe they would escape easily and without any sacrifice. Like, dude, really? You got her pregnant and you think you’re gonna just sling her over the back of your horse and ride away no prob? But don’t worry. After much hardship, they eventually find each other again and live a nice life with their twin sons. It was necessary for them to endure that to become stronger, and to learn not to build towers on such shaky foundations.

The High Priestess in the next Fairytale Tarot Card As always, If you’re interested in a deck, Please fill out this survey and I’ll email you when I start crowd funding http://goo.gl/forms/sbHFRSMQOb The High Priestess is a card about listening to your subconscious, paying attention to what your dreams and intuition are telling you. These things are not easy to see, but this card asks you to part the veil and understand what is actually going on. I chose Scheherazade from a 1001 nights. She is the purveyor of all knowledge, she has a story and anecdote for every situation. But she also isn’t going to come right out and give you the answer. The solution is still up to you to find. She is subtle though ultimate power.

I based her outfit off Ottoman Empire stylings, because a lot of trade went through modern day turkey, I bet they would know a lot of stories there

On a more personal note, I’m thinking of her as the master of this deck. I feel like she already knows all these fairytales.

Cinder and Iko this time. NOW I know Iko looks a LOT like Marvin from “Hitchhiker’s guide to the Galaxy” It was an “accident” (that proves that I have a very limited background of references on androids).

El daño fue mínimo, sutil, y totalmente efectivo. Para Case, que vivía para la inmaterial exultación del ciberespacio, fue la Caída. En los bares que frecuentaba como vaquero estrella, la actitud distinguida implicaba un cierto y desafectado desdén por el cuerpo, el cuerpo era carne. Case cayó en la prisión de su propia carne.
