I’m not sure if I 100% believe, but I’ve always been fascinated by tarot. Really cool piece! -LB
Thank you! I’m just getting into tarot and having trouble remembering what the different cards mean, so I’m hoping doing a haiku for each will help and give me a quick reference guide. I don’t know what I fully believe on the mystic side of tarot, but I do believe it taps into our own subconscious and psyche, and in that way is still very insightful. The book I just read about it definitely leaned more toward the idea that tarot isn’t necessarily magic, but gives us archetypal representations and symbols to work with. It’s pretty interesting. Plus I like the pretty pictures.. :)
