Oddity
Hello!
As I was laying out some cards today I noticed something...
The King of Pentacles looks a lot like the Empress (I think he does). He is surrounded by plants and nature just like her, he has a laurel wreath at the base of his crown just like her, both are wearing these long flowing robes decorated with fruit – he has even borrowed her sceptre, but he's not holding it as high.
And the Queen looks like the Emperor, especially their crowns are very much alike. Also both are wearing red, and sitting on a throne with ram heads. It could almost be the same mountains in the background too, but just a bit further away in the Queen card.
What is going on here? Have the royal couple of Pentacles secretly raided the closets of the Empress and Emperor? And if so, why have they switched clothes between the genders?
Is there some sort of real intended connection between these cards, or am I just making things up in my head when I'm comparing them? I couldn't find any information about this and I hope this question is not too stupid – I'm still learning about this deck, so I wouldn't know.
What are your thoughts?
