bleuivy said:I would LOVE to get my hands on a BtVS/Angle deck. And now that both shows are finished *sob!*, the mythology is firmly in place. Now, the meaning the artist intended to put on each card wouldn't be changed by later episodes adding more to the mythology behind the symbolism.
I especially like the idea of the hanged man as spike on the cross, and oz as the hermit.
Ceit -- why would you put Harmony on the Strength card? Buffy or Cordelia strike me as more the strength type. I would be interested in hearing your reasoning.
As for the sun, how about Dawn? Or perhaps an image of Angel or Spike in sunlight?
Also, in your idea BtVS deck, would you include characters and mythology/symbolish from Angle's series, or keep it firmly in the realm of Sunnydale?
The reason why that I choose Harmony as strenght is her inner strength. She might not have had the smarts to achieve her goals but she did have them and went after them. She was determined and didn't let things stand in her way. Granted that she was painted as stupid evil, she still had the determination to go on.
Stregnth to me is more the ability to carry on in advesity.
I would do the "buffy-verse" including Angel in the tarot cards.
