At first glance the man in each of these pictures could be the same person, study the cards and see how you feel about them, then try linking them up fom left to right in a simple story. |
Oh dear!
The Rise and Fall of Mr. "Made Man". Chapter 1 - 9 Pentacles. Life is wonderful!! Here we see Mr. MM enjoying a lovely day in his garden. He has everything one could hope for - abundance, wealth and love, status in the community.. (He even has the birds eating out of his hand.
Chapter 2 - 9 Cups. Mr. MM takes time to pause and sit among his worldly treasures. "I am soooo lucky" - he thinks to himself and settles back comfortably - arms folded and lost in the happy haze of complacence. Little does he know, he only owns 9 cups - something (the 10th cup) is missing!!
Chapter 3 - 9 Wands. Hmm, here we see Mr. MM on a trip to one of his many ventures. On the whole, things look good, but there seems to be one more issue of concern. (That smile of self-satisfaction we saw on his face in the last chapter seems to have been replaced by a slightly worried look.) He's tired and is holding onto one of his rods for support.
Chapter 4 - 9 Swords. What a terrible night!! Right after lights out, Mr. MM wakes up in a cold sweat - he is tormented by his own self created nightmares that take the shape of swords looming over his bed!! Is the situation REALLY as bad as the nightmares suggest? Is something bound to go wrong?? Is it true that nothing good lasts forever? Does he feel guilty? Did he lose everything on the stock market? Did his wife and family leave him? He clearly need a short rest... who knows perhaps the world will look better tomorrow.
THE END
