The hanged man
Let´s have a look on the HANGED MAN
We can see th man hang, tied to the beam with one of his feet. We can´t see, wich one it is. It can be the right one (intentional crisis) ore the left one (unconscious). He needs this crisis to learn to see the other way, to turn his way of looking. And if he tries he will, what the eye and the sunny light show. The rational elements on this picture are the beam, the cord, (the rock) and the wide way. The scene in the back shows us, that we like to use this supposed wide way, of rationality mostly, what ends at the rock. But only if we go back a few steps and find the small way, we well be able to go on and reach the light.

These are so bright and original, while still retaining the flavour of the classic symbolism. I really like them; they are beautiful work. Thank you for sharing them with us!
Langustl
....you all are so nice with me. I allways wait for a comment " this could be better" ore "I like them, but....". Nothing like that. I´m really thankful for that.
to you all !!! And thank you the_surfacer !

Death
The meaning of THE DEATH:
The sickle, hold by the bone-hand, is a main motive in the painting naturaly. It has a wand- charactre. The snake, that keeps her tail in the mouth, shows us the circle of life, the way through the night and death back into the day and the new birth. The water marks the border. The sun is sinking ore rising, how you want, it depends on the point of view in the circle. On the other side the moon. The leaf at the sickle is a symbol for new life, the other side of death. The ruin and the dead tree symbolises the decay of the earthly things. And I painted three thumbstones with the headgears of pope, king and farmer on it.

Temperance
The symbolismn of TEMPERANCE:
The temperance shows, how the soul becomes lead through the underworld by the angel. At this point we must be very careful and should listen, what the angel tells us, because we walk between death and devil. So on the painting you can see the way through the underworld. At its sides lilies grow, the underworld-flowers. You see the two cups with the energy-stream, that tries to find the right temperance. On the top of the picture we have the symbolized angel with the wheel of fortune in the iris, what I use for a devine force. Under the angel you see the first light of the day at the end of the way. The symbols are taken out of the RW-card, but I chose different colours for the cups..

The Devil
....and the DEVIL
You can see the horns and the five-star with the point turned down, the sign for satanism. The two sqares withe the fire inside stand for materialism. The hands of the "lovers" are closed not open and tied to each other with a chain. They are not free, but that´s a thing, they choose themselves.
