THE GREAT TAROT MEME

[azure-regis.livejournal.com]

Ganked from Cape and Cowl, though I'm unlikely to actually do art for it.

Basically, I want to make up a Wake Tarot; figure out which characters fit which cards best. I'm not even sure we have enough characters (there's 75 cards or so, we'll see).

I am going to post descriptions of each card; your job is to reply to each thread with which characters you feel fit the best. You can also be like "I AGREE WITH SO AND SO"

After a few days/when I'm non-lazy I'll put up the results. And maybe draw a few if I'm non-lazy hoorayyyy.

Descriptions ganked from here

NOTE THAT I ACTUALLY CAN READ TAROT And maybe later I'll idk do some. I've done online readings before.

*E*

I ALSO WANT TO RANDOMLY NOTE THAT THE FOUR SUITS - Wands, Coins, Swords, and Cups - correspond to both elements, and in Nautilus, to cardinal directions. Thus:

Wands - FIRE - West
Coins - EARTH - South
Swords - AIR - North
Cups - WATER - East

;D

4 - The Emperor

[azure-regis.livejournal.com]

The figure of the Emperor says much about the essential qualities of this card. We see a stern, commanding figure seated on a stone-slab throne. His back is straight, and his eyes meet ours directly. He is confident of his complete authority to rule.

The Emperor represents structure, order and regulation - forces to balance the free-flowing, lavish abundance of the Empress. He advocates a four-square world where trains are on time, games are played by rules, and commanding officers are respected. In chaotic situations, the Emperor can indicate the need for organization. Loose ends should be tied up, and wayward elements, harnessed. In situations that are already over-controlled, he suggests the confining effect of those constraints.

The Emperor can represent an encounter with authority or the assumption of power and control. As the regulator, he is often associated with legal matters, disciplinary actions, and officialdom in all its forms. He can also stand for an individual father or archetypal Father in his role as guide, protector and provider.

I can't decide between Megs, Teej or Optimus for this one.

idunno, I can't stop thinking 'Megatron' every time I look at the description.

Definitely Megs.

I think Megatron suits this one the best, yeah.

I'm jumping on the Megs bandwagon.
