Tarot by Sage card # 28


THE CAROUSEL


 


MEDITATION: Living life at six revolutions per minute, the perfect pace.


BEWARE: Beware of running the gears too fast.  It causes a breakdown.


HIDDEN STRENGTH: Acquainted with assorted artists who revive merriment.


HIDDEN WEAKNESS: Turning the ponies out to pasture.  Sweetwater's restoration is not complete until the last one is lacquered and buffed.  Try harder to come full circle.  Have stars in your eyes!


SLANT: This card is purely for reliving the magical moments in your childhood.  It is gold on the hoof.


POWER: Carousel.  Admire the beauty of a vanishing breed.


 


Authors note: This is the last card in the series Tarot by Sage.  It has been a fun journey.  Thanks to all of you who have taken the whirl with me and the reviews.  Come back for a ride every now and then.  I guarantee to give you 30 revolutions, that's 5 happy minutes of vertigo at 6 revolutions per minute!

I've said it before. You are educating me here. And I am supposed to be an educator. Thanks, Sage. Love and peace to you.

Well, I haven't seen all the cards, but I think I like this art best, as I LOVED carousels as a child- I don't know if I thought I was a queen up there, or whether I just liked the solitariness of it, as if being in one's own world. I think there is so much magic in them, and this card-My weekness in my writing is that I have alot of troouble coming full circle, as I hate rewrites, so that is a weakness we share:)
