Sun Enters Gemini, Tarot Card Lovers

Sun Enters Gemini, Tarot Card Lovers The Sun in Gemini, tarot card Lovers, represents the duality of our brain at the point of becoming conscious.

Inspiration for my depiction of the Lovers card came from Paolo Uccello’s  painting of Saint George and the Dragon. The Influence of Paolo Uccello’s Painting Upon the Lovers On a first glance at Paolo Uccello’s painting, it seems the male hero rescues the maiden from the clutches of a […]

See Tarot Hermit and Tarot Devil In the foreground of the card the scroll of life unfolds and as it does so the Duat, symbolic of […]

Because he could now read an individual no longer heard the words of gods or kings The once direct communication […]
