Oracle of the Poet--tell me what you think
This is an idea from a poem I wrote called "Initiation of the Poet," a kind of metaphorical tale of the spiritual pathway. There was a lot of personification and symbolism. Tell me what you guys think.
(If you'd like a copy of the poem, or if you're an artist who thinks it's such a great idea that you'd like to help me out with this project [because I'm a terrible artist], send me a private message).
Here's what the cards in my head are like right now:
0--The Poet (At a fireplace, meditating)
1--Death (a sad man)
2--Life (a happy dancing woman)
3--Nature (A beatiful woman)
4--Passion 1 (A wild man)
5--The Tree (to climb to the Moon)
6--Dark Side of the Moon (Showing the dark/hidden side of people)
7--The Angel (a suicidal, winged woman)
8--The Earth (The Lover of the Moon)
9--The Moon (As in, the distant moon, inspiring lovers, poets, and pagans)
10--Death and Sleep (playing poker with the Angel)
11--The Butterfly (that flies the poet off the moon)
12-19--the 8 other planets
20--The Shooting Star (a droplet of Aquarius's bucket)
21-32--The Zodiac (each somehow playing with the shooting star
33--Scorpio's Tale/Stairway of Stars (That lead back down to Earth)
34--The Past
35--The Moment (We can't hear the Past and Future-The moment is loud)
36--The Future
37--Father Time & Mother Eternity (Parents of Life and Death)
38--The Thunderstorm (with angels trying to speak to the Poet in the rain)
39--The Gate (of the Sun)
40-- The Washing (Love and Thought getting the Poet ready for the Sun)
41--The Sun (the poet is at one with the universe. Rebirth. Ra. Apollo. Jesus)
(Once again, if you'd be interested in reading this poem or creating a deck with these concepts, send me a private message. Thank you
)
