Little Baron
This is a harsher card than the last two that I have drawn.
When I look at this I think of metal burning up. I think of the temperature rising until it is white hot. I think of iron rubbing against iron. I think of large cogs turning against each other and the friction that is made. The whole scene just gets hotter and hotter.
And I suppose that this is what having a character that is ruled by file in a suit that is ruled by fire. It is dry and hot and there is little time for thought or emotion, which makes this Ogoun, or warrier, a touch cookie to work with. The traditional symbolism of the tarot 5 (offered by Waite) in the suit of batons, fits here, I suppose, but somehow, this spirit is a little more relentless, rather than a tad compedative. He goes out and out to get what he wants. Which could represent a problem if he is drawn from the deck. Some kind of consideration is needed.
