Quote: It was indeed a time between, one second their thoughts all brambled Airedale, the next all silken slumbering cat. It was a time to go to bed, yet still they lingered reluctant as boys to give over and wander in wide circles to pillow and night thoughts. It was a time to say much but not all. It was a time after first discoveries but not last ones. It was wanting to know everything and wanting to know nothing. It was the new sweetness of men starting to talk as they must talk. It was the possible bitterness of revelation. Something Wicked This Way Comes By Ray Bradbury What card am I?

.....erm.......is it 2 swords? x

skytwig	23 Nov 2003
rebelhorse........ good try, not it ;)

jmd	24 Nov 2003
'a time between...' 'bitterness of revelation' mmm....??? How about the Hanged Man?

Star Spirit	24 Nov 2003
The Hanged Man?

gloria	24 Nov 2003
Page/Cups? Birth of new emotions.

Xavier	24 Nov 2003
I would also say a page. Page of wands ? (although I also hesitate with page of cups, but this answer has already been given.

Diana	24 Nov 2003
The Bateleur? As in the Marseilles?

Moongold	24 Nov 2003
5 or 6 Wands?

skytwig	24 Nov 2003
Good morning players :D Wellllllllll............. NO....... nada, nope, not it, some close, some not so close........ TRY again :D

gloria	24 Nov 2003
Sounds like being on a seesaw, so am going for 2/Discs.

skytwig	24 Nov 2003
Seesaw...... hmmmmm.... it does have that sense, doesn't it?..... kinda wears one out, doesn't it? NOPE, not 2/discs :D

Mystic Zyl	24 Nov 2003
Wheel of Fortune?

skytwig	24 Nov 2003
:( Darn, mystic zyl..... that does fit the quote, doesn't it?...... but it's not the card I had in mind......... Try again...........

gloria	24 Nov 2003
The Chariot?

skytwig	24 Nov 2003
Not the chariot...........

Diana	24 Nov 2003
I know!!! It's the Lovers!

Nevada	24 Nov 2003
3 of Cups? Nevada

skytwig	24 Nov 2003
Nope, nope........

gloria	24 Nov 2003
Strength?

Diana	24 Nov 2003
I'll try once more today. The Moon? (Come on skytwig! Say "yes"!!!! :D )

skytwig	24 Nov 2003
I really wish i could say Yes, Diana......... Moon makes sense, of course, and Strength does too...... but..... they are not the card I picked.......... Clue: It is part of a process in the Tarot path........ (Put on your thinking caps.... ;) )

Diana	24 Nov 2003

gloria	24 Nov 2003
Death? Sounds a bit dramatic I know, but am clutching at straws here. :)

gloria	24 Nov 2003
Justice?

skytwig	24 Nov 2003
:( no gloria

gloria	24 Nov 2003
Judgement, I say this because the boys are looking inward rather than outward. Yes? No?

gloria	24 Nov 2003
Temperance? This is madness.

skytwig	24 Nov 2003
:( nope, nope Madness....... hmmmmmm....... so which card tells us to let go of the madness?

gloria	24 Nov 2003
The Tower?

Nevada	24 Nov 2003
This one has me stumped. I'd like to make two guesses. I'm thinking Swords because there seems to be communication going on. Hmm... "a time between" ... 4 of Swords comes to mind. I just don't know. :( Oh, wait -- Star? Nevada

Moongold	24 Nov 2003
Yes, I think Gloria is right. It's your favorite card and my heart picked up as I neared the bottom of the thread and DARN.......pipped at the post :laugh: Now, God, that does not mean that I want another tower experience right now. OK I'll say Fool just in case there is a chance ~ Moongold

"a time between" ... 4 of Swords comes to mind. Exactly.......!!!!!!!!!! :D 4 swords is often a respite, a time between times, between movement, between decisions...... it is the card of rest and medictation....... Swords are communication, yes, but very much part of our mental process..... thinking, thinking.... trying to solve...... 4 swords calls us to let that go and settle, even if temporarily, to recoup, so we can begin again, farthur along our path......... Thanks all...... throw pencils and wads of paper at this facie.... :D Your turn NEVADA!!!!!! WUHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO :laugh:

gloria	24 Nov 2003
Well Moongold I will not believe it just yet. I am going for World just in case, as Nevada has pipped me for the Star.

gloria	24 Nov 2003
That was a great game Skytwig :) I was about to ask if it was a Major. Look forward to your clue Nevada. :)

Nevada	24 Nov 2003
Yay! Okey dokey, I'll be back as soon as I find a good quote. This time I'll remember to put it in a new thread. Need thinking cap ... where's that bankie? :D Nevada

Moongold	24 Nov 2003
