Today I finally had the chance to put some finishing touches on it.<br /><br />They are Auben and Amber, two of the people in the Water Song.<br /><br /><img src="https://www.studiopyraxis.com/tarot/lovers_300.jpg" alt="A young, well-built black man clasping in his arms a shorter blond woman with long braids pulled into a hairnet at the nape of her neck. She&#39;s wearing a simple vest over a light blouse and skirt billowing in the wind, and he&#39;s wearing a fine woven tunic with geometric tribal patterns and loose pants.

There's a sense of ambivalence about it - sometimes it features a man caught between two women instead of a man and a woman joined. The idea is that something else has to be given up, some sacrifice has to be made, in order to pursue the love that has come into the querent's life. Auben and Amber both turned away from major influences in their lives as they turned to each other. The card can mean falling in love with a person, but it can also mean coming to something which feels as if it completes you. It's a bond which is felt at a deeper level than the conscious mind.<br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=pyraxis&ditemid=243282" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments tag:dreamwidth.org,2009-09-24:448299:225370 2014-07-26T03:26:44Z 2014-07-26T03:26:44Z recovering from being sick public 9 <span class="cut-wrapper"><span style="display: none;" id="span-cuttag___1" class="cuttag"></span><b class="cut-open">(&nbsp;</b><b class="cut-text"><a href="https://pyraxis.dreamwidth.org/225370.html#cutid1">The main cast of characters, in graphic novel style</a></b><b class="cut-close">&nbsp;)</b></span><div style="display: none;" id="div-cuttag___1" aria-live="assertive"></div><br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=pyraxis&ditemid=225370" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments
