The Chariot - 16/09/2019

The chariot is found on a half-desert plain, mountains on thebackground and a sea cliff in front of it. The horses move slowly but steadily, as if they were aiming for the cliff. The sky is cloudy and there's a storm coming. Once I became the man on the Chariot I realized the roof was too low and I had to bend to see where I was going. Behind me I noticed the clouds growing more menacing, floating from the mountains. Once we got to the border of the cliff I noticed there was a small beach that could have been traveled and a passage going down on my left, but I wondered if it would have made sense to go that way. I got off the Chariot to see which way would have been better but I couldn't figure it out. On my back I saw the mountains, on my right and left I got the same scenery. Lightnings are starting to flash and thunders are starting to rumble. I decide to go left towards the passage going down and I notice that in the mountains there's a small cave big enough to be used as shelter. I get in, I untie the horses from the Chariot and I sit down looking at the rain pouring down. The horses are sleeping, I keep looking outside, not managing to find a way to continue the journey.

The Lover - 13/09/2019

The Lover, the two contenders and Cupid are found in a non defined space. The only visible part is the ground the three people are standing in. The Lover is contended by two women who don't interact between each other. The woman on the left (on the right of the Lover) is older than him, the one on the right younger or same age. The Lover sees the woman on his right as someone who can give him a lot since she is much more expert than him in terms of relationships and sex, while the girls is surely more similar to him in terms of age and experience. The woman is driven more by sexual impulses, she sees the guy as a prey, she knows how to conquer a man. The girl is driven more by feelings and she sees the guy as someone who can give her emotional support. She thinks about sex too but as a secondary aspect. The guy finds himself between the choice of a woman who will make him the "protected" part of the couple and a girl he must take care of, almost as a father. Cupid doesn't cover the role of the choosing one, but the role of blessing the union as soon as the guy makes his decision. Cupid knows that the sun behind him is the one that needs to guide the guy in his choice. At the end of the visualization the guy still hasn't decided.

The Pope - 12/09/2019

Entering the Pope card I found myself in the clouds. The Pope was sitting on a throne on the top of a mountain, to get there there's a very long staircase. In front of the throne, at the top of the staircase, there's a little space for consultants to sit or stand. In that moment the Pope is busy scolding the two people who are seen in the card. As an external observer I couldn't hear what he was saying. The sky is completely covered in white clouds, but the light passes through. Once embodying the Pope I understand why he is angry. It's the end of the consultation and he's scolding the two people because they know how to solve the problem they're looking a solution for, if they put effort into it. Neither of them manages to speak, heads down. Once he has done scolding them the Pope sends them away, telling them to reflect on what to do, because they have the means and capacity to find a solution. Once the consultants go out of sight a light from above falls on the Pope's crane, as if to recharge it. The Pope doesn't manage to stand still on the throne, he stands up, walks around it and then sits down again. Shortly after a woman with a baby walks up the stairs. The Pope holds the baby and goes "he's a beautiful baby", giving it back to the woman. The woman is poor, she lives with her mother, and the baby's father has abandoned her. She's there to ask the Pope what to do with the baby. The Pope asks her where the father is, with whom does the woman live, if she manages to take care both of her and the child, but they are all questions made to have the woman reflect. Eventually the Pope asks her if keeping the child is what would give him a better life, again to make her reflect. Without saying anything I sense that both the Pope and the woman are thinking about giving the baby up for adoption. The woman gets sad, but she has in mind writing a letter for the baby for when he will grow up.
