LOOKING ONLY AT THE CARD, NOT USING THE COMPANION BOOK
1. Describe the card
The setting looks to be the desert, or a beach. There are patches of grass growing, but it's a mostly sandy area. The sky is soft, warm blue, and the sun is out - a beautiful day.
A brown horse looks as though he's walking and looking for something - he's walking carefully, neck and head stretched out, but lowered, in line with his or her body. There is another horse shape in the clouds above - I'm not sure if this is a spirit-type image, like a guardian to the horse on the earth.
2. Describe the emotional atmosphere of the card. What emotions does the card evoke in me?
Warm, but tentative.
3. What would a physical manifestation (in you) of this card be? (i.e. tingling, gasping, smiling, headache, makes me want to run, etc.)
4. What are the mental characteristics of the card?
I would be enjoying the warmth on my skin, as I have been the past few days, but as I said above: watchful.
5. What are the spiritual characteristics? (if any)
I think the horse could be a guide - or the 'oversoul' of the horse on the earth.
6. What I find most appealing about the card
The horse in the clouds, and the sunny day, the sand.
7. What I find least appealing about the card
The wariness in the horse, that may not even be there. I may be projecting.
I don't know if anyone wants to join in here. I started using this deck a year ago, and then left it to one side, with the others - wanting to work with it, but nobody else seemed interested in a study group, and I was dealing with other things. (The irony: this deck probably came to me at the perfect time to deal with those things - I first heard about it two years ago. I read the author's book, The Tao of Equus, though, and that helped me on some days.)
