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

18 - The Moon

[azure-regis.livejournal.com]

If you look around the room right now, you will (probably!) see people and objects that are comforting in their familiarity. Everything is exactly as you expect it to be. You know that if you closed your eyes and opened them, the room would be the same. But...have you ever lost the familiar to find, in its place, a world so extraordinary you can't even grasp it? This is the experience of the Moon.

Most of the time we live in a tiny pocket of normality that we wrap around us like a security blanket. We turn our backs on the mysterious universe that waits outside. From time to time we may sneak a peak with our imagination, or venture out through fantasy or expanded awareness. We can be thrust out there unprepared through drugs, madness or intense experiences such as battle.

The Moon is the light of this realm - the world of shadow and night. Although this place is awesome, it does not have to be frightening. In the right circumstances, the Moon inspires and enchants. It holds out the promise that all you imagine can be yours. The Moon guides you to the unknown so you can allow the unusual into your life.

Sadly, we are usually afraid of the Moon. In readings, this card often stands for fears and anxieties - the ones that come in the darkest part of the night. Card 18 also stands for illusions. It is easy to lose our way in the moonlight. Be careful not to let deceptions and false ideas lead you astray. Sometimes the Moon is a signal that you are lost and wandering aimlessly. You must find your way back to the path and your clarity of purpose.

I immediately thought of Saix, but... that was the title. Heh.

Though also... kind of reminded of Rion? I don't know his character that well, so I could be totally off.
