The Window Tarot
living Major and Minor Arcana
Actual Hermits, Knights, Pages, Jugglers, Judgement, Death, the Tower, and the Devil… all drinking, shoveling, féting (etc) below The Window:
THE HERMIT: “The lesson and reward, but also misfortune, of solitude.”
JUDGEMENT: “Ultimate judgment, whether we welcome it or not”
TWO OF PENTACLES: “Confusion. Your mind struggles with trying to make two seeming opposites combine.”
KNIGHT OF PENTACLES: “Follow a course, stick to the plan, and you can reach even a far-fetched goal.”
PAGE OF PENTACLES: “Time to dream and let the fantasy go. That invigorates and opens for new possibilities. Be optimistic.”
THE TOWER: “A spectacular ambition that ends with disaster”
DEATH: “A costly loss - sometimes, but not always, the death of someone.”
THE DEVIL: “The pain and delight of giving in to temptation”
NOTES:
-No images in The Window (24/7/365/1 photo project) haven been staged — all are real events caught from a single location by chance over a finite amount of time. No pixels Photoshopped, no friends coached, no actors hired, no firebreathers on ten-foot pogo sticks bribed to bounce by in the nude, showing their skills (and “skills”).
-But… because The Window is about ze gorgeous zeitgeist and artificial intelligence is the zaitgeist, I did AI generate The Devil card photo (tho somewhat mitigated by using a real Window image as reference).
-But part II: time jump — i previewed a couple shots from The Window sequel: The Patio (the ones with tesselating bricks. Many more coming.)
- to féte: re Caribana
-Details in the Cards, some kinda synchronicity: Hermit — besides the pole, the snow & hood also match; Judgment— wings, bur also one hand up one down, and flag/purse rectangle also echo; 2 of Pentacles - besides the hat, the subject is also wearing tights! And Death: moving by horse-power (horse/truck). BTW below is the alternate choice for Death:
