Hi
What would you say a castle represents in symbolism? It makes me think of a safe haven, wealth, something established, & where work has been put in, perhaps even extreme security & mastery/authority. Í also wonder about the redness of the roof. Red = the first chakra and creating a base.
If I'm now just looking at the castle in the pentacle suit. I think it's first visible in the 4 of pents, then the 6, 8, 9, 10 (inside on the wall, where the people are inside the town/village for the first time). I noticed that in the eight of pentacles (left of the card), further away to where I imagine the village is, is the same castle as in the card of the king of pentacles. In the 8 of pentacles the person is refining his skills, working hard and probably doing work for the village/community (the court suit?) of the pentacles. Then right behind the king is the same castle (or I assume it's the same one).
How would you connect or look at the castle througout the pentacle suit? For example: the work put in, in the 8th, to ensure that safety & wealth for later on? Getting closer to that castle, the mastery of the suit?
I think the pentacles have the most secure (beautiful) castles & buildings in comparison with the other suits. Which maybe makes sense since it's a suit of security.
I'm sure there's probably much more to it. What are your thoughts on the development of the castle in pentacles, castles in general & the redness of the roof (and anything else I overlooked)?
Thank you
I would love to hear your thoughts on this
