Here is the next installment in my own Tarot design project over on DeviantArt using the Miku Miku Moving program. Please let me know what you think!
Not to worry, I’ll continue to feature the series I started with in the links below.
Today we’re featuring and exploring the Page of Swords, the eleventh card of the Sword Suit in the Minor Arcana.

Take your time. Let them “speak” to your soul and mind.

What This Card Means to Me
This card brings the promise of the challenge. Children, and those with the heart of a child, instinctively embrace the learning opportunities that all challenges provide. It’s how we grow and develop. Somewhere along the way, many of us as adults forget how to do this and we become stuck and stagnate.
We need to remember that being childlike doesn’t have to mean being immature, but rather meaning self learning and adaptive. If we take the time to really think about it, this is what the entire sword suit represents: learning and growth from all these challenges.
And this card promises us that we can do it if we make the honest effort and stick with it to the end.
The Music Playlist
In the spirit of all this, these are the songs picked out thus far for this card.
Do you have any songs you think should be on this list? Suggest them in the comments!
The Writing Prompt
Now as a writer with everything we’ve gone over with this card what comes to mind? Start writing! Doesn’t matter what it is. Stretch your mind and let the card speak to you.
I would love it if you linked or pinged back what you wrote so I could see where you went with this.
Happy writing!
