The Star
Feels kind of weird to be the first one to post - but I think it should be the 24th in every time-zone by now...
deviantArt for bigger version
"While this card offers hope and possibilities, however, the reader must remember that these are in the distance. Only a time of healing and peace, like the oasis of water before the Star, are in the now."
I seem to have dropped a lot of the original symbols... like the pond (which really only merged with the blue sky surrounding them), or the two urns (which I just couldn't get to fit into the image) ... or the woman's nakedness.
I focused on the "rest and healing" aspect of the card's meaning. The "stop to take a breath, close your eyes for a second", when home (or any place to come home to) is still far away.
Thus the kind of bleak background, as well as the bubble-thing enclosing Sakura and Kakashi and the spot where they rest (and Kakashi being unable to completely fit/hide in there...)
I suppose the cherry-tree in the background also kind of relates to the theme. As in "the passing beauty of the scattering petals - which yet is a promise that (in time) fruit will grow in the blossoms' stead".
(The scarecrow, on the other hand, was added solely and only for my own amusement...)
