Keys XIII - XVI & Words
Death, Temperance, The Devil, The Tower
Driving home from work I was reminded that I needed to post these. My immediate thought was, “ooof, it doesn’t feel great to be posting these right now. With the state of the world being what it is, posting 4 tarot cards and the words I heard or read in classical literature that I associated with them, seems pretty GD trite.” But shortly after that assessment, I was reminded which 4 cards would be posted, and nothing seemed more right. I put all of this together before the New Year hit. It’s fascinating how meaningfully this particular quartet materialized in the timeline. Without further ado…
Key XIII - Death: Child of the Great Transformers / Lord of the Gate of Death
pairs well with Alexandre Dumas
Key XIV - Temperance: Daughter of the Reconcilers / Bringer Forth of Life
pairs well with Louisa May Alcott
Key XV - The Devil: Lord of the Gates of Matter / Child of the Forces of Time
pairs well with Oscar Wilde (one of my favorite quotes of all time.)
Key XVI - The Tower: Lord of the Hosts of the Mighty
pairs well with Mary Shelley
