Cards
Before I run off to make dinner & do all the various & sundry other things I have to do today:
Imagine I was making a deck of cards with some rough similarities to the Tarot or to the runes, and imagine that these were going to have, in addition to a 27-card deck of symbols, another 27-card deck consisting of 1-9 of each of three suits.
My (admittedly cursory) knowledge of Tarot suggests that these the 1-9 suit cards, can also have meanings, but the meanings I'd like for my three suits, I'd like to be a little more sequential.
What I have so far is:
Suit of the Green (leaves, Life):
1 - Seed nest egg, possibilities
2 - Sprout/Baby fragility, beginnings
3 - Seedling growth, innocence
4 - Fruit fruitful! ;-)fecundity, fertility, profit
5 -
6 -
7 - Encroachment Stretching to others' space
8 - Entanglement (root ball) All is caught within this root ball
9 - Wall Nothing can pass
Suit of the Red (flames, fire, destruction):
1 - Spark Sacrifice, promise
2 - Flame Two-edged sword: danger and life
3 -
4 -
5 -
6 -
7 -
8 -
9 - Inferno Clearing the slate
Suite of the Blue (water, air, chaos, change):
1 -
2 - Rain Needed, necessary, bringing new life. Clean.
3 -
4 -
5 -
6 -
7 -
8 -
9 - hurricane A killing overabundance Not quite what I wanted here... but not sure what I do want, either///
How would you fill in the blanks? ;-)
