Description EDIT March 9, 2011

I have decided to post some FAQs about this deviation, considering I keep getting asked the same questions over and over again.

> Why is this *insert character* in this *insert card name* It should be *insert Character* ??

I would like to say, i did not write the descriptions. I was only asked to do this along with a friend of mine. The descriptions was made by a fellow Member of the Harry Potter Group i belonged to.

> Why did you only make the Major Arcana?

Thats the only one that I was asked to do. And I have no intention of making a whole set, I am Not really familiar with the Tarot and from the limited knowledge I have about tarot is that each card has a specific color or things that must be included in each card. I rather not be in the firing range of Tarot aficionados ^^


> Can i have a copy?
Sorry No, This is solely for Pinoy Harry Potter Group



=================


The complete set yay~! to be used for the New World's Event this may 23 and 24 ^^

Im finally done T_T

0 - THE FOOL (Gilderoy Lockhart); To go forth blindly on an unknown path.
Ignorance is Bliss

potentials, has skills and talents to accomplish his tasks or goals. Power
is at hand.

II - THE HIGH PRIESTESS (Hermione carrying books); Keeper of wisdom and
knowledge. Has practical or working know-how but needs to be tempered with
tact. Research?

III - THE EMPRESS (Minerva McGonagall); An independent and strong-willed
woman. Stern and matriarchal but can also be nurturing when needed.

IV - THE EMPEROR (Dumbledore in his office); With great power comes great
responsibility. Decisions are not enough, do something!

Experience is the best teacher.

happiness is at hand. The search is almost over.

work pays off. Success!

fortitude. Rise to the challenge.

IX - THE HERMIT (The Sorting Hat); Knowledge through seclusion and
meditation. Time for quiet reflection.

X. WHEEL OF FORTUNE (The Moving Staircases); Fate has the upper hand. Either
go with the flow, or challenge Fate. Do what you must.

about it. Do not give in to the Dark side. Give up and you lose.

before the fall.

XVII - THE STAR (Quidditch Harry chasing after Snitch); Wishes do come true.
Dream, believe, surviveTM.

XVIII - THE MOON (Scabbers and Peter Pettigrew); False hopes,
misconceptions, deception. There's more then what meets the eye.

ashes or despair, for you are given a second chance.

XXI - THE WORLD (Hogwarts Castle); You see the big picture. You're at the
center of the universe. Fulfillment and synergy.

Very nice idea and I really like the motives^^
But you haven't quite figured out how to make characters un-cute yet
Peter Pettigrew being the most obvious. McGonagall and Dumbledore don't look old enough either.
But otherwise good work

aaargh! forgot to say: yeah, there are characters like the dementors who didn't make it - but the great arcana consists of only a limited number of cards. hp has enough for 42 cards. like fenrir greyback - easy thing. but - what could the pensive stand for? the mirror of erised? questions without end... now, good night every one!

InsanelyCute [2011-07-07 21:30:09 +0000 UTC]

this is downright awesome! i would have expected snape as the hermit - or probably the strenght. but since the hat is on its own practically all the time and when he is not, he has insight into people's heads, it is just great. As for the strength: I always found him by far the strongest of all characters (both in terms of will power and ambivalent character) but probably you found him too dark for the eight. anyway - this is great. i am no huge fan of hp but this work shows once more that - yes! - hp IS more complex than twilight! good night!

this is super sweet! i love the way that you matched everyone up! one thing that i can't understand, is why you didn't do the minor arcana. please don't be offended! tarot cards tell a person's story; the Major Arcana (the 22 above) are just the over all plot. the Minor Arcana are the fine details of the story. if it's just one or the other, it's off balance. i suggest that you add in the swords, wands, cups and pentacles. each suit has 14 cards each. i'll gladly take any criticism to this comment.

Hi! thanks for the comment.
Its one of my popular deviations.
Unfortunately, as I have always mentioned to every time a comment like this pops up, this was actually a sort of commission / favour from a group that I belong to. It wasnt my choice to only do the Major Arcana, thats just what Me and my then boyfriend was asked to do for an event the Harry Potter Group I belong to held on the release of a movie a good while back.
I have no intention of continuing it, since, I am not really that familiar with the whole set. I mean I know tarots, but I am no expert plus I am really not an aficionado. I find it interesting but not enough to create a whole set. I hope you understand.

I should prolly post something of this sort in my artist comments, since i still occasionally get this sort of comments haha, In any case, Thank you for your comments and interest.

LOl cause of him being a werewolf? the one who decided on who should be on which tarot card based it on Personality and MEANING OF THE CARD. If you READ the description, I think The HEIROPHANT fits him well :3
