Hmm, let me think... Aha! I have it! Come, little children, sit around the campfire with me, and I shall tell you a story... A story so bold as to hide within it secret traditions and lost messages, a story so grand that you will remember it for years to come! You will be so amazed by my story, (Which was, by the way, passed down to me by my Father, who was told it by his father...) that it will be as though God were speaking to you through me! Now listen, as I begin my tale.... Who am I? PS- Moongold: I found your Queen of Wands 'Who Am I?' very beautiful!

What about the SUN? I am thinking of Apollo, son of Zeus, and sometimes identified with Helios the Sun God. Apollo was highly interested in mythology and the healing arts. He was also interested in young people and I can just see him sitting around a camp fire telling stories. Of course Zeus, his father would also have had many stories and Zeus was a God and the sun of Gods. Are we allowed two choices? My second choice is Judgment but I'm too sleepy to explain. Moongold

Unfortunately, those aren't the cards I'm thinking of Moongold. I like your reasoning though, and I shall certainly add the Zeua/Apollo bit to my Tarot journal... Kiama

Hi Kiama, Can I have another go? How about TEMPERANCE the Angel? Angels love children and vice versa. Remember "Angel of God, my guardian dear.......?" Well angels have lots of stories, particularly the one about Paradise Lost which led to the creation of the Devil character, Lucifer. Grand tale indeed. And this Angel would give a balanced view .............hmmm, always necessary when you're handing down myths and legends. Will explain my earlier choices later. Moongold

How 'bout the "harumphant"?

Quote: Originally posted by firemaiden How 'bout the "harumphant"? Ah, dear Firemaiden, I think you may be correct. So obvious now. Now I am mad as Dali says but also envious :laugh: I've been surprised at how quickly this kind of game turns me into a raging lion - . Hmmm....insights every where.. Blessings Moongold PS have settled down now. Deo gratias

Great idea! The Hierophant would be my guess also.
