Card: Robin Goodfellow
Court: Summer Court, Knave
We peek into a summer scene of a young man with horns playing on what looks to be an Irish penny whistle, his torso blends into two hooves that are sitting cross legged in the lotus position. He is surrounded by vegetation and looks to be deep into the forest.
Robin Goodfellow is a quite well known mischievous English Fairy who is found in Shakespearer's A Midsummer's Night Dream where he is also known as Puck.
(For those interested, he enters A Midsummer's Night Dream in Act II Scene I and the quote in the book can be found as the second time Fairy speaks in that act.)
Robin Goodfellow is a well known trickster, appearing as a pony, hare, or a will o' the wisp, he is never seen between Halloween (Samhain), and the vernal equinox. He has the head of a handsome boy and the feet of a goat, small horns on his hand and carries musical pipes with which he bewitches humans.
Among Shakespeare's Puck Robin Goodfellow is suggested as synonymous with the horned God Cernunnoos, or Robin Hood as a spirit or God of the forest. He is known for having a very lusty nature and enjoying seducing young human girls when he is not being a trickster.
Divination meanings: He heralds fun, good-hearted mischief, adventures in the offing, new experiences, entertainment and
celebrations. Being a member of the Court he may represent a real person in your life, a young man who is fearless, witty, impetuous, unpredictable, and always ready for excitement. Quick-tempered but hates injustice of any kind and will speak out against it.
Reversed meanings: Delays, postponements, minor irritations, and perhaps legal problems. Reversed he may indicate a young man in your life that is narrow-minded, bigoted, argumentive, and a lover of opposition.
In the book is an exercise for working with Robin Goodfellow.
