Hey everyone.
It has been quiet in this study group for a while. You could literally hear a pin drop!
I suppose we have all been pretty busy in other areas as well.
Just thought I would start things up with an idea.
In another thread, Kissa placed a link for a new deck called 'The New Vision' tarot.
This deck is a different angle on the Rider/Universal Waite. All our favourite characters are there, but rather than see them from the usual angle, we see them from behind.
I had never considered what some of them may be looking at over our heads and it proves very interesting.
For example, we don't know just how the guy on 10 of Wands looks - does his face show stress or is he actually quite contented with his bundle?
Our three figures on the 6 of Swords - what do their faces show. Where have they been as apose to where are they going?
Who or what is the 2 of Pentacles protecting his discs from?
What fate does out blindfolded lady of the 8 of Swords about to walk into?
What expression does the guy on the 10 of Swords hold (aside from a lot of pain!). Is he dead or alive still?
This may be a bit of a strange idea to a lot of us since it just somebodies interpretation but it certainly is an interesting idea for debate and I am very interested to see this deck when it becomes available - I think it is in August.
The webpage that Kissa placed on the thread is
http://www.alidastore.com/indexen.html
There is an example of The Fool (on the cover), The World, 3 of Cups and The Chariot.
What do you all think?
Maybe we could come up with our own ideas before we see the 'Vision' Tarots results.
Best wishes to you all
