If you were a tarot card what would you be?

If you were a tarot card from the Major Arcana, what would you be?

And why?

I just thought it would be interesting to do some introspection and know ourselves enough to be able to liken ourselves to an archetype in the Major Arcana.

Me, I view myself as The Fool.

Like The Fool, I can be naive and child-like. I leap into things without foresight. While this could be a bad thing, it's not entirely negative. For like The Fool, I am hopeful and have trust in the Universe, not minding where it takes me, willing to boldly take whatever challenge that might come along, and eager to accept life's lessons as I go on with my journey.

So how about you guys?

Remember to be honest to yourself in this exercise! ;-)

Ooh, cool question!

I myself think that I would be the priestess.

I am wise, and am very spiritual. Because my gaze is so often focused on the internal, I tend to see past the surface of most things, and people, granting me insight. However, this tendency to look inward often blinds me to what's going on right in front of me. I also would prefer to watch and wait over taking immediate action in most situations, making me hesitant, and that at times can cause stagnation in my life.

Dear, I FEEL YOU. I am also a bit of a "High Priestess" myself and tend to see past a person more than what most people see in him/her, that I barely notice what he/she is actually doing. Fear is usually what causes inaction (in my part), which is ironic since I mostly identify myself with The Fool. This is in spite of the "High Priestess" in me which knows what I should do.

Self-awareness is a good start though and it can lead to transformation. And being a High Priestess, you do have that Inner Voice, your intuition, which knows what you should do in a situation :fairy: So you're not as far from change as you may think!
