I am the answer to the sphinx's question...

[la_marquise]

You are The Moon

Hope, expectation, Bright promises.

The Moon is a card of magic and mystery - when prominent you know that nothing is as it seems, particularly when it concerns relationships. All logic is thrown out the window.

The Moon is all about visions and illusions, madness, genius and poetry. This is a card that has to do with sleep, and so with both dreams and nightmares. It is a scary card in that it warns that there might be hidden enemies, tricks and falsehoods. But it should also be remembered that this is a card of great creativity, of powerful magic, primal feelings and intuition. You may be going through a time of emotional and mental trial; if you have any past mental problems, you must be vigilant in taking your medication but avoid drugs or alcohol, as abuse of either will cause them irreparable damage. This time however, can also result in great creativity, psychic powers, visions and insight. You can and should trust your intuition.

And so am I, isn't that interesting.

It is.

I'm the Tower. Which, er, given the description, puzzles me more than a fair bit:
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.


I think I made a wrong turn somewhere...

It's a really strange set of answers. The cards are pretty, though.

And I'm the High Priestess: knowledge-oriented control-freak. Very soppy image, though...

[http://users.livejournal.com/la_marquise_de_/]

Knowledge-oriented is good!

[cmcmck.livejournal.com]

Also the High Priestess.

The mind boggles..............

It's an odd meme, this one.

You are the Hanged Man

Self-sacrifice, Sacrifice, Devotion, Bound.

With the Hanged man there is often a sense of fatalism, waiting for something to happen. Or a fear of
loss from a situation, rather than gain.

The Hanged Man is perhaps the most fascinating card in the deck. It reflects the story of Odin who offered himself as a sacrifice in order to gain knowledge. Hanging from the world tree, wounded by a spear, given no bread or mead, he hung for nine days. On the last day, he saw on the ground runes that had fallen from the tree, understood their meaning, and, coming down, scooped them up for his own. All knowledge is to be found in these runes.

The Hanged Man, in similar fashion, is a card about suspension, not life or death. It signifies selflessness, sacrifice and prophecy. You make yourself vulnerable and in doing so, gain illumination. You see the world differently, with almost mystical insights.

I got the Tower (struck by lightning, which it omits to mention) - which actually does rather reflect how I feel at the moment :-S

[http://users.livejournal.com/la_marquise_de_/]

Oh dear. Take care.

[muninnhuginn]

Hanged man. About which the ravens are entirely... unsurprised. (One day the tarot will turn up The Empress or The Sun a nd we'll fall off our perches.)

But the decks are very pretty.

[calendula-witch.livejournal.com]

I am the Sun! :-)

[http://users.livejournal.com/la_marquise_de_/]

Now that seems very appropriate.

[a-d-medievalist.livejournal.com]

Yes, I like all the decks. And now wonder what will happen if I go with my first choice, rather than my thinking choice, of heavenly bodies...

[kythiaranos.livejournal.com]

I got the High Priestess, which suits me pretty well.

[http://users.livejournal.com/la_marquise_de_/]

:-)

[al-zorra.livejournal.com]

So did I.

In earlier daze it used to be The Star.

I haz maturity now?

Love, C.

[http://users.livejournal.com/la_marquise_de_/]

:-)

[kythiaranos.livejournal.com]

I guess we can hope for maturity, right? :)

[dorispossum.livejournal.com]

Am the Empress, apparently, so a supplier of good beer...?!

[http://users.livejournal.com/la_marquise_de_/]

Well, that sounds like a good thing to be!

[dorispossum.livejournal.com]

could be worse! :)

[history-monk.livejournal.com]

I seem to be The Hermit. I wish this was less appropriate.

[http://users.livejournal.com/la_marquise_de_/]

Oh dear...

[valydiarosada.livejournal.com]

I'm the Empress - Some mistake surely! She seems to be an Earthmother sort of figure, and I'm hardly the maternal type.

It must be the cat.

[http://users.livejournal.com/la_marquise_de_/]

Definitely the cat!

[zaan.livejournal.com]

Me too! Who'd have thought we were of that type, eh? lol

[http://users.livejournal.com/la_marquise_de_/]

:-)
I'd have picked the High Priestess for you, I have to say. You're far more psychic than I am.
