Happy New Moon Steemit!
Moderate Game of Thrones Spoiler Alert
Today I will continue to look at the Major Arcana of The Game of Thrones tarot.
The rest of the Major Arcana are shown here and here
Sam in the Temperance card is interesting. Sam is definitely a good choice for gentleness and moderation.
He is also relentless in his research and comparison. Taking time before making a decision, and a gentle and moderate demeanor is exactly what Samwell Tarly is about.(usually)
Ramsay Bolton as the Devil...
This highlights the dark and cruel aspects of addiction and obsession, but it does also show how obsession gets things done...
Ramsay accomplished a great deal because of his methods, but it eventually cost him his face.
The Tower - This is the tower that Bran fell from, which started his whole journey of awakening. This is fitting for The Tower , and when it explodes, know there is a new paradigm on the way.
In the Star, Sansa lights the candle, hoping that the North remembers.
If I remember right, this didn't turn out so well in the show, but it is a good way to show hope, and a greater power coming in for the assist.
The Moon is shown in the Moon Door at the Eyrie. It shows possible danger, and maybe a gateway to a different world or perception.
The Sun is a free little dragon basking in the sun! Yay!
Judgement is shown as the Night King... He does resurrect the dead, so I guess that fits.
Other than that, i'm not a huge fan of this card.
The World is a map of Westeros. I guess the ultimate end of the show will be someone uniting the 7 kingdoms, whether that's Jon Snow, Danerys, Cersei, or the Night King.
In the context of the show, I suppose it's a fitting way to show completion.
Overall, I love some of the cards, and some I would have definitely done differently.
Readings are pretty easy to do with this deck, but I am a huge fan of the show, which makes it easier.
