They are symbols to represent the aspect of an initiation or a transformation of some sort.<br />Perhaps you could read them more like a poem then a story. :)Ellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02617686222764658629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8158245992923239671.post-44317108278385092742014-07-11T15:39:03.946+02:002014-07-11T15:39:03.946+02:00Layer upon layer of meaning and suggestion in fair...Layer upon layer of meaning and suggestion in fairytales - lovely! However, if you're the eldest child, you never seem to win :/ I guess that's about mental attitude/beginner's mind, rather than actually being the eldest, but sometimes my mind is rather literal...Neopagan Priestesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15389878173900385163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8158245992923239671.post-3366709661124462722014-07-10T20:06:06.316+02:002014-07-10T20:06:06.316+02:00P.S. you should definitely check this out:

There are similarities too of course. The whole deck is an adventure to read with.

The Hermit has always been one of my favorite Major Arcana characters from a conceptual standpoint, but the artwork in many decks feels less rich than other cards.<br /><br />I've also never heard the term Troupe for the court cards. For whatever reason, that label instantly makes me feel like they're more approachable and interesting.

I loved to read my kids fairy tales and all sorts of stories like that too. It is good to remember those days, with two girls in their nighties on the couch and me in the middle with a big book full of stories and beautiful pictures. :)Ellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02617686222764658629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8158245992923239671.post-20662099687401633982014-07-10T14:38:40.221+02:002014-07-10T14:38:40.221+02:00I love this Hermit.

I used to read wisdom tales from various cultures and religions to my daughter (instead of going to church). I figured she probably wouldn't remember "do this/don't do that," but she probably would remember stories that had lessons embedded in them. :)thesycamoretreehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15182019323050600440noreply@blogger.com
