Which tarot card are you?

Artica said:
You are The Lovers


Motive, power, and action, arising from Inspiration and Impulse.


The Lovers represents intuition and inspiration. Very often a choice needs to be made.


Originally, this card was called just LOVE. And that's actually more apt than "Lovers." Love follows in this sequence of growth and maturity. And, coming after the Emperor, who is about control, it is a radical change in perspective. LOVE is a force that makes you choose and decide for reasons you often can't understand; it makes you surrender control to a higher power. And that is what this card is all about. Finding something or someone who is so much a part of yourself, so perfectly attuned to you and you to them, that you cannot, dare not resist. This card indicates that the you have or will come across a person, career, challenge or thing that you will fall in love with. You will know instinctively that you must have this, even if it means diverging from your chosen path. No matter the difficulties, without it you will never be complete.​


Weird! :huh:​

My wife got this one, too. She was quite pleased with the notion.

Mine probably should have been the fool. I keep getting the hanged man and the fool mixed up. I'm not sure if the hanged man turns into the fool or the other way around, according to lore.

The Tarot deck tells the story of the fool, it's the starting card (actually there is some heavy debate over this, some practitioners beleive him to be the end card) and each of the 22 picture cards (major arcana) represents a step along the fools journey, for instance the emporer and empress are interpreted by many people as the embodiment of the parent figures and they are encoutered at a stage where the fool would be logically leaving the Id stage of his development. If you check out most images of the fool you
will usually find him about to step off a cliff while looking to the sky or something, it's supposed to symbolise his ignorance and the fact he is about to take a blind leap into his journey.

Been quite a few years since I studied this kinda stuff but I think my memory is working ok, amazing the crap you pick up over the years :)

You are The Hermit

Prudence, Caution, Deliberation.​
The Hermit points to all things hidden, such as knowledge and inspiration,hidden enemies. The illumination is from within, and retirement from participation in current events.​
The Hermit is a card of introspection, analysis and, well, virginity. You do not desire to socialize; the card indicates, instead, a desire for peace and solitude. You prefer to take the time to think, organize, ruminate, take stock. There may be feelings of frustration and discontent but these feelings eventually lead to enlightenment, illumination, clarity. ​
The Hermit represents a wise, inspirational person, friend, teacher, therapist. This a person who can shine a light on things that were previously mysterious and confusing.

You are The Devil
15.jpg


Materiality. Material Force. Material temptation; sometimes obsession ​
The Devil is often a great card for business success; hard work and ambition.
Perhaps the most misunderstood of all the major arcana, the Devil is not really "Satan" at all, but Pan the half-goat nature god and/or Dionysius. These are gods of pleasure and abandon, of wild behavior and unbridled desires. This is a card about ambitions; it is also synonymous with temptation and addiction. On the flip side, however, the card can be a warning to someone who is too restrained, someone who never allows themselves to get passionate or messy or wild - or ambitious. This, too, is a form of enslavement. As a person, the Devil can stand for a man of money or erotic power, aggressive, controlling, or just persuasive. This is not to say a bad man, but certainly a powerful man who is hard to resist. The important thing is to remember that any chain is freely worn. In most cases, you are enslaved only because you allow it.

You are The Wheel of Fortune

Good fortune and happiness but sometimes a species of intoxication with success
The Wheel of Fortune is all about big things, luck, change, fortune. Almost always good fortune. You are lucky in all things that you do and happy with the things that come to you. Be careful that success does not go to your head however. Sometimes luck can change.​

You are The Tower

Ambition, fighting, war, courage. Destruction, danger, fall, ruin.​
The Tower represents war, destruction, but also spiritual renewal. Plans are disrupted. Your views and ideas will change as a result.​
The Tower is a card about war, a war between the structures of lies and the lightning flash of truth. The Tower stands for "false concepts and institutions that we take for real." You have been shaken up; blinded by a shocking revelation. It sometimes takes that to see a truth that one refuses to see. Or to bring down beliefs that are so well constructed. What's most important to remember is that the tearing down of this structure, however painful, makes room for something new to be built.​



Astute observation, and I did not even have to remove my trousers! :eek:
