RE: 🚪 "Temptation and Addiction" - Eye to Eye with Lucifer

in #art6 years ago

Journey of the fool always looks so funny until some of them become heroes. I believe that it is sort of the rule that majority of heroes start out as fools as rational people would often avoid that path. By the way, does the numbering of Tarot cards have some specific meaning in their order or is it random?

Sort:  

Absolutely right! Wasn't there a saying like "First they ignore you, then they ridicule you, then they fight you, then you win"? LOL.. of course you have to be a little crazy to take certain path. But think of where we would be without that.

The cards are organized in a certain order and the number is really the postition in the deck. Thing is, I didn't necessarily paint them in that order 😎

We would still be cavemen i presume. Everybody loves a bad idea when it works. And that order in the deck does not have any special meaning to it does it?

It depends on how you look at it. Each one by itself has the same value, that's not like in other decks, where the ace is more than the king and such. You only have that in the minor arcana in Tarot. The trump cards are sort of equal, none is higher than the other.

But the numbers form a sort of sequence. If you look at them as a journey through a human life, one follows the other and you can't have "The Devil" before "The Chariot" for instance. Although in some decks "Justice" and "Force" are reversed.

So its more about about one following another... like pointing your camera first and then press the button instead of doing it the other way round...
