Wow these cards are GOOD!!

^^^^ who says the cards don't tell the truth???

Those who say that probably haven't had a proper reading. It's an art to read tarot cards for someone.

^^^"an art" is the word.
I have a close fortune telling friend here, she is pretty spot on: 75-90% of right guess is good. I never saw anyone guessing 100% true. Plus, some things could be interpreted differently - like, once she said I would probably sign up for horse riding but instead I signed up for a driving course but yes, some sort of "mount" was there. Definitely

Ooh, another idea: about The Death card. I am thinking about one of the very first scenes: "One life is over; another is about to begin" (Tommy's face in flames - Jake's face in cryon). Maybe this image could be combined with the Na'vi funeral scene? (An Atokirina must be there imho.) Cos - afaik - this is what The Death card is about in Tarot: not so much a physical death, "the end of everything" but rather a radical change. "A fresh start in a new world". Hm?

Hmmm that's quite a good idea Mika. The Na'vi burial I thought could be something similar since the spirit returns to Eywa, symbolised especially with the atokirina there.

Well .. can't say how long it will take, and in the end its clearlly going to have been a ToS group process .. so if WE sell them .. guess have to decide how and what the money would be raised for or somehing .. in the end it could just be an online Tarot .. and there is lots of those, but we will have to see how it goes!

That's the interesting thing HNM .. there are a lot of other subtler images that can give the meaning of the card as well, and they all 'tie' into gther, the 'Tower' energy actually carries over symbolically into a lot of other Major and Minor Acrana cards .. so where we might use the specific image such as Home Tree .. yet would find that the image your sugggesting be one of those other cards. Thanks though good suggestion worth considiering!

Mika, are you doing only the Major, or the Minor Arcana, too?

The eyes opening image as HNM suggested should definitely be somewhere. I just wonder what cards it clicks with best... I am thinking, "The World", but it's what first came into my head. let's think together....

Ah, & - only imho - painting cards vs screenshots definitely allows more space to play & for creative interpretation. Screenshots can give good ideas, but then painting can amplify & develop them.

Online Tarot is a good start. Me, I would like to touch things - cards in this case. I'll keep them under my pillow & see what dream(s) they inspire
