See now, I didn't see anything,Tansey, that was scandalous in that card. More of a lifting of the veil.
The 4 waiting are pieces of a soul waiting to be revived, like the tree they stand around... the Tree of Life left to go barren and to waste. Each time we allow our hearts and souls to be broken, we loose something of ourselves. But, these pieces don't really just go away. They haunt us, what we were or could have been, should have been, what is missing of ourselves so that we may be whole. They are Woman, Mother, Daughter, Lover-- all waiting to find a way to be One. The veil has been lifted and we can no longer hide from the truth.
Just my spin on it and I am so totally using this card as part of the deck. I am going to LOVE working with this deck. Just the cover card had the wheels spinning, so I can only imagine what the rest of the cards will do!!
