The Emperor

Upright: authority, structure, control, fatherhood  Reversed: tyranny, rigidity, coldness

Super pumped to be able to include another piece by @mafumafuriah (@mafuriah on twitter) in my tarot project, this time featuring the big bad himself! Mafu is always such an absolute delight to work with and I can't recommend her art enough.

"You want to start a Calamity? Get in line, bitch." -Actual RP quote

FINALLY commissioned a tarot card from @mafumafuriah ! She put in so many tiny details from my info sheet that it's nice to just pull up the pic and stare at it wondering what symbolism I'll find today. 10/10 would save up for another commission.

Anyway here's Escher as The Magician because what else.

[hexmachina]

Iux Iunseer. THE HIGH PRIESTESS

Key symbols: the moon, pomegranates, a ring of gold

...Secrets will tell themselves in one way or another, and the keeping of them will cause them to take on a life of their own. If not spoken aloud, they will find other languages to be communicated through: absence, avoidance, action.

The High Priestess stands guard at the threshold of truth, in the liminal space between interior landscapes that cradle traumatic secrets in dense thickets of thorns, and the celestial expanse that has seen everything but has no voice with which to communicate. There is a cost - both in seeking truth, and in refusing it - and those devoted to the Traders are prepared to pay both.

Serella of the Silver Lining - Queen of Cups

This was an art piece that my beloved @holyja got commissioned for me by the always effervescent @mafumafuriah (who can also be found on twitter) featuring my Warrior of Light, Serella Arcbane, as the Queen of Cups. It's absolutely breathtaking, thank you so much for taking the time to draw her in such loving detail, Mafumafuriah!!!! She looks absolutely breathtaking!!!

Apologies for those who don't want to read about me getting schmoopy about my girlfriend for a bit, I'll toss all of that below the cut, but TL;DR my girlfriend commissioned this for me and I love them a lot okay thank you for coming to my Ted Talk

They gifted this for me on our first anniversary a few months back, I just hadn't wanted to make a post before I could give them their gifted commission in return!

I wasn't prepared for a lot of things with Hyana- this commission, falling in love, being friends on a more personal level. Hell, us talking in private at all, because I'm normally such a recluse otherwise.

If you had told me two years ago that my crush was actually requited, and I was just being stupid? I would have laughed. And laughed. And laughed.

But now you're visiting me, presently napping on my bed and hogging all of Rhalgr's attention and love (which, of course you are. of course he loves you. didn't I tell you he would? anyone would.) and I feel like the luckiest person in the world.

You're probably going to grumble about how much of a dork I am for this, and that's fine because you forgot to get a nerf gun, so I'm safe from retaliation for now, but even if you hit me with a thousand thousand nerf darts for it, that's okay. I'll still hold your hand and laugh and tell everyone how much I love you and how wonderful you are.

Happy anniversary, my love. The first of many, many to come!

Ten of Cups (upright): Divine love, blissful relationships, harmony, alignment.

The Ten of Cups embodies happiness, joy, and emotional contentment, particularly in your relationships and family. You have created an abundance of love and happiness in your life, and you now share this love with others, expanding your heart even more. This card often appears when you are surrounded by your loved ones with whom you share a powerful and deep connection. You appreciate and support one another, and together, you help each other reach your highest potential. It brings you so much joy to see your loved ones succeed and live happy lives.

(Thank you so much @mafumafuriah for this beautiful artwork of Lithen and Maha! I thought the ten of cups best suited their relationship and she captured the mood perfectly.)

(XIV). TEMPERANCE UPRIGHT: Balance, moderation, patience, purpose

REVERSED: Imbalance, excess, self-healing, re-alignment Two angles of the same card. Otolin as Temperance Upright, representing balance and striving for purpose. Severine as Temperance Reversed, led by excess and the quest for self-healing. Not opposites so much as completing the same image. Partners in every way.  Thank you to @mafumafuriah for this incredible piece.  Otolin is @stone-xiv Severine is @severine-savage

III. The Empress - Verdandir Sadi

Upright - Sensuality, Nurturing, Creativity, Beauty, Femininity, Nature, Harmony, Art Reversed - Insecurity, Lack of Confidence, Lack of Growth, Overbearing, Disharmony, Negligence, Smothering

The Empress calls upon one to connect with their feminine energy. Create beauty in life. Connect with one’s senses through taste, touch, sound, smell and sight. Draw on these senses to experience pleasure and deep fulfilment. Discover different approaches to expressing oneself creatively, be it through painting, music, drama or other art forms. As the Mother Earth archetype, the Empress urges an individual to venture out into nature to ground their energy and be in flow with the earth. Allow oneself the time and the space to enter a different frame of mind and receive the grounding spirit of nature into their heart and consciousness.

I am so fortunate to have gotten the chance to commission @mafumafuriah/ @dyalavellan for this amazing piece! Truly, I admire their talent and style in creating these tarot images and being a wonderful person to speak with. Thank you so much for the lovely art of my little Verdie.

At long last, my sixth batch of completed cards for my ongoing and very long term project! My attention has definitely been in a whole tonne of places this year but I am still very much wanting to complete the set, I'm deep enough now that I've just gotta keep going! This lot, as well as featuring a heap of angst and poor lost souls being torn in different directions, features three fabulous guest artists; @theninabird (Nine of Swords), @quinnimae (Two of Wands) and @mafumafuriah (Six of Swords) and can I just say I adore each of those pieces so very very much.

Breandan Ducaille, THE CHARIOT

VI. The Lovers || Fray Myste & X’shasi Kilntreader

love • unions • partnerships • relationships • choices • romance • balance • unity

“She was the person I wanted to protect most in this world. When you find someone like that—someone you would give anything to save—your hearts are connected so deeply that there can be no barriers between you.”

For me The Lovers has always been a card about virtuous choice, and what one values, and what happens when you find unconditional acceptance. Shasi and Fray are not romantically linked, but they are, in a way, soulmates, and this is their first time communing.

@mafumafuriah did such a wonderful job capturing my vision of these two! If you get the chance, I highly recommend working with her! I am already looking forward to commissioning her again. ♥

Tᴇɴ ᴏғ Sᴡᴏʀᴅs

Upright:  Painful endings, deep wounds, betrayal, loss, crisis

The Ten of Swords marks a painful yet inevitable ending.  It shows that a certain force of extreme magnitude has come to hit you in your life - one that you may have not foreseen: a relationship may come to an abrupt end, your job may be cut, or a contract is broken. It is as if this ending has come out of the blue and rocked your world. It cuts  into the core and leaves you feeling as if the world has crumbled in around you. You are grieving the pain of this shocking loss and wonder if you will ever love or find work or trust again. This seems to be a reminder that despite how much we try, we cannot control everything - there are things that are beyond our ability to change.

Tarot card by @mafumafuriah !!!! Thank you sosososo much, I’m absolutely in love with it!!!
