Upright

Free of burdens. Free of worries. Living in the now. Fearlessly taking risks, not of bravery but of naivete. A new start, and a blank page. An open mind, and an adventurous heart. The Fool is a child sampling life. Spontaneous. Endearing. Exploring where his whims take him. Anything is possible. But his little dog may be warning him not to step too close to the edge of the cliff. The Fool may be studying the stars when he should be looking where his next step will land. He may be a likely victim of trickery and deception. An easy target for bullying or usery. Traditionally, also a suggestion of careless and excessive sexuality. This card more than any other represents the subject, experiencing the influences of the diverse cast of characters in the Tarot deck.

Reversed

Foremost, the victim of recklessness. Reversed, the Fool falls from the cliff. After his painful landing, he may shy away from risk taking, become suspicious or fearful. But, sometimes read as the exaggeration of the negative aspects of the upright position. Even greater excesses or irresponsibilty. Foolish choices. In some contexts, also seen as a call to accept responsibility and quit acting the Fool.

Upright

Greater understanding. Sacrifice. Humility. Introspection. Acceptance. Contemplation. The Hanged Man is about opening one’s mind and overcoming preconceptions and prejudices. A card of meditation and revelation. Also a card of faith and trust. Disengage and look at the big picture. Perhaps others may be right about some things. Perhaps what had seemed so important really isn’t when you stop to think about it. Traditionally, selflessness, wisdom, suspension, entrancement, devotion, submission, intuition, regeneration.

Reversed

Pretty much the direct opposite. Stubborness. Refusal to see other points of view. Distrust. Narrow mindedness. Unwilling to sacrifice or compromise. Traditionally, selfishness, procrastination, irresponsibility, lack of faith.

Upright

Mystery. Nightmares. Dreams. The fears that grow in the dark. Secrets. The Moon lights the gateway between the physical and metaphysical, the conscious and subconscious realms. Entering the Moon’s world is frightening, but can also be revealing and inspirational. The Moon suggests creativity and intuition. Possibly psychic revelations. Utilize the inspiration. Perhaps write or paint. But also respect the dangers lurking in the dark. Beware of deceptions and phony people. The subject must be very careful to avoid hiding their fears behind alchohol or drugs, as the Moon indicates increased vulnerability to these self destructive behaviors. Traditionally, hidden enemies, deception, illusion, danger, terror, lunacy, plots, dreams.

Reversed

The upright Moon is not a comfortable card, but the reversal in ways is more frightening. Although it indicates less danger of external hidden enemies and deceptions, it suggests heightened fears or denials. Perhaps overly emotional or delusional behavior. Irrational and intense fear could cause psychological problems. The wildness and chaos of the dark may be getting out of control. This is also a card of travel, in a different sort of way. It is said to sometimes portend Astral Travel, the experience of consciousness traveling outside of the body. When looking at health issues, the Moon represents sleep disorders, mental illnesses, drug overdoses and coma. Traditionally, inconsistency, instability, fantasy, ambush, fraud, usery.

Upright

Realization. Attainment of major goals. Reward. Recogniton. Triumph. The World card speaks of understanding the big picture. Everything falls into place. The end of the Fool’s Journey, but the beginning of other journeys. Now it is time that all the knowledge and experience can be used to do great things. A card of travel. Perhaps you are a diplomat on a mission to negotiate treaties, or a business leader opening new markets. The World indicates understanding, success and achievement. Traditionally, completion, fulfillment, perfection, promotion, honors, good health. A good omen for successful childbirth.

Reversed

Not an opposite meaning so much as a delay. The tools seem to be there, but the successful completion is as of yet unattained. Perhaps fear of what lies beyond is preventing completion. Sometimes thought to represent hollow or half hearted efforts. A person with great credentials resting on their laurels. Travel may be delayed or interrupted. Combined with the wrong cards in a reading, The World reversed could represent failure or serious problems. In health matters, The World generally represents good health and successful childbirth, unless negatively influenced by other cards in a reading, in which case it can suggest skeletal or orthopedic problems. Traditionally, inertia, stagnation, obstacles, failure, imperfection.

Following the heart. Trust. Relationship. Responsibility. Commitment. Also partnership and cooperation. The Lovers may be an indicator of a love affair, but more so has to do with making good choices. Recognize the difference between love and infatuation.

Reversed

Relationship problems. It could be Romeo and Juliet, passionate lovers kept apart by their feuding families. It could be discontent resulting from a poorly considered marriage. The unhappy consequences of bad choices. In some contexts the harbinger of breakups or divorce.

I totally get why I'm placed as the Magician, but you should totally explain it for everyone else. Because they probably don't get it.

Upright

Revelation. Positive transformation. Progress. Understanding that which is already known. Appreciating that which is already available. Clever. Focused. Diplomatic. Interesting. Note the symbol of infinity representing the heights of achievement possible. The Magician is the facilitator of the Tarot deck. Enabling the subject to utilize their talents and abilities to better advantage. A salesman who sells you on yourself. At his worst, a bit conniving and manipulative. In readings where the Magician represents the subject, heightened communications skills and persuasiveness are also suggested. When representing another, pay close attention. Remember that although the Magician is usually an agent of progress and growth, he is also capable of trickery and deception.

Reversed

Low self esteem. Problems communicating. Options are lacking. Progress is difficult, and opportunities overlooked. Sometimes overconfidence or poor planning that obscure understanding. Inability to utilize the tools available. Reversed, the persuasive powers of the Magician may result in self deception. Traditionally, a con man, user, phony. Also, take care to protect against head injuries.

I personally don't feel like I fit as the Chariot, but I can definitely see why you chose me for it.

You're free to explain why for mine if you've got the time.







That being said, a CI artist actually making one of these CI Tarot decks one of these days would be sick. I wouldn't mind popping like $5 to help the cause.

Upright

Triumph. Mastery. But not easy and swift. Achieved through careful planning, hard work, force of will and foremost by harnessing disparate forces to work in unison. Self control, confidence, commitment, effort and focus that produce success. Overcoming obstacles. Also, often relates to travel. A trip or a move may be coming soon. Traditionally, journeys, exploration, conquest, control.

Reversed

Difficulty or failure coordinating disparate forces. Lack of control. Lashing out. Rashness. Indecision. Moving in circles. Sometimes interpreted as a warning of stress related illness, such as ulcers. Also possibly vehicle or travel problems. Traditionally, accidents, defeats, delays.

Upright

Surprising and unexpected revelations may by coming. The High Priestess card represents illumination, knowledge and truth. She is eminently feminine, mysterious, secretive and intuitive. Moody and aloof. Knowing all, but expressing her secrets by measure, or through symbolism. Yet she is a powerful advisor. A well of knowledge, but only a cup at a time is dispensed. This card may often represent the subject, if female, or the object of the subject's desire, if male. Also, perhaps a suggestion for introspection or meditation. Traditionally, she represents knowledge, modesty and discretion.

Reversed

Passion. Indiscretion. Immodesty. Promiscuity. Seduction. Betrayal. Revealing secrets to cause embarassment and hurt, rather than to share knowledge. Selfishness or shallowness. The High Priestess card reversed may also be a warning to pay heed to feminine health issues.

More broadly, the Empress encourages you to connect with others by nurturing, caring and supporting those around you. Find ways to support dialogue and open communication, creating a space to openly express your feelings.
