adriayna said:Yes, indeed the idea for the deck does. I have a close spiritual connection to trees, and so I saw it as the perfect theme for my divinations.
REALLY? I had no idea. I'll stick a watermark on them or something. They aren't very high resolution scans, so I doubt anyone would be able to print off of them. But thank you so much for the heads up!
Sidhe-Ra said:Soory, I meant Pentacles when I said earth! I tend to think of the suits in terms of their elements.
Well, cups aren't associated with Earth, they are associated with water, the West and Autumn, Pentacles are associated with Winter, Earth and the direction of North- at least in the Celtic and Golden Dawn magickal traditions, and in most (golden Dawn based) Tarot as far as I know.
Cups are associated with the west and Autumn, as this is traditionally the season of descent into the underworld and the subconcious, represented by water- it all works! That's why its been the magickal association for so long. Likewise Pentacles are long associated with earth, north and Winter.
If you have strong reasons for changing things around, then great, but water in winter turns to Ice, and does not flow, changing its qualities and thus the meaning of the cards...
At any rate, your work is very beautiful indeed
