haloquinThe Artist
The Artist Speaks: I am the one who walks between the worlds and brings back dreams. I discover and reveal potential and beauty. I catch the light and mould it as it moulds me. My fingers caress the paint and transform it into what it most wants to be. I can look beyond the limits and reveal this world to you. And I like pretty colours. I delight in the brightest hues and I can show you what it is I most adore. I can frame the world in a way that reveals more than merely what is 'real', I can show you the Being of beings.
This was unbelievably fun to make, and an activity close to my heart.
Water Bearer
The Card is the Water Bearer, but the first voice I heard was that of the Water...
Water Speaks: I am the one who is power only just restrained. I am life giving and all devouring. I am the one who shapes the places you walk. I am in every depth in every part of your being, beating in your heart, flowing in your veins, rocking your inner core. I touch everywhere, without me, you would not be, and yet I can swallow you whole.
(I suppose I should make space for a 'water card' to make the voice visual...)
Water Bearer Speaks: I am the one who contains. I carry life from one to another, pouring life. I shape and am shaped by the powers I hold, I bring the greatest gift. I am the one who keeps the space so you can play, I am the cup that never empties and never overflows. I am the boundaries, the edges of the bowl.
Gemini
(The Brief: 3rd House; Gemini and Mercury-the Speaker. I am the One who communicates.)
Gemini Speaks: I am the one who speaks the truth. I travel beyond the limits of this world and bring back truth and understanding. I am the messenger of the Gods. I am the talking stick, the marker of when to speak, and when to listen. I am the stories in the blood, and the light that transports words. I lay things out in black and white, but you may not understand my words because I bring them from beyond your horizon, I open them to you. Can you hear me? Will you listen, although my words may cut you?
These cards were suggested by a Soulcollage/Astrology Website, although I can't find the page it was from at the minute, I'll edit the links in when I find them again.

I need to go and look at the suits, what they are called and what they mean, as I currently don't have a system to keep track of where these belong in relation to me, and I think this might be useful. The Artist is part of me, but the Water Bearer is not so much. Although the lines are blurry and the more I think about it, the less clear the lines are!
