Mystical Cats Tarot

A bronze-colored Egyptian Mau is lying on its back as he playfully makes a huge mandala wheel spin round and round with his paws. His eyes are closed in pure bliss. He seems to be located in an enclosed space, not very large in length, but with an unknown depth and height. The 3 walls we can see are made of some brownish material and the floor is made of brownish square tiles. The wheel takes about half the space of the card and contains many details. It's made of 4 concentric circles. The most internal one contains the Aum (Om) symbol. The next circle is separated into 4 equal parts by diagonal axes. Each part contains a differently colored drawing/symbol. Red flam…

A black and white cat is looking outside, sitting by an arched window. The window and the visible portion of the wall around it are made of white marble stone. The arch of the window has a cinquefoil pattern (5 lobes) and we can see moldings representing each clan in between each cusp. From left to right, there is a seashell (Sea clan), a flower (Earth clan), a bird (Air clan) and a flame (Fire clan). Through the window, there is a vast view of the landscape. Closer to us, there is a large grassy area with some scattered trees. Right behind there is a forest, with a body of water on the left and a bridge passing over it. Somewhere on the right, there is a building resem…

3 cats are looking at a large beetle on the ground. We can't see their facial expressions, but they seem to be calm and not aggressive or scared. The beetle is mostly green in color, with some gold and red patterns on its back and head. Colors : The vivid green of the beetle catches the attention against the pale grey of the ground and the more toned down colors of the cats. The book tells us that in fact, those cats are cooperating together to make the beetle leave their dwelling without having to hurt it or risking being hurt by it. The author points out that ''[p]roblems that seem insurmontable alone become manageable – and enjoyable – when you work togethe…

A white cat with green eyes is standing with her hindlegs flexed, as if she was about to jump. She's looking up towards a very bright source of light which we can't see from our point of view. The background of the card appears as varied shades of dark grey, as the light doesn't reach further than a delimitated spot, in the middle of which the cat is standing. A tomoe symbol, seemingly engraved in the ground, can be seen right under the cat. Each part includes flame patterns. Colors : Very neutral tones (Grey, white, beige) As much as the 2s were about passiveness and waiting, the 3s are about movement and action. Sometimes, when the unknown lies ahead, it's …

2 cats and a young sea lion are lying down next to each other on a big rock. They are located near the seaside and a few other grassy rocks can be seen in the background on the left, with the sea on the right. A small portion of the blue sky can be seen at the top of the card. The 3 animals are looking towards us and appear quite relaxed. The cat on the left seems to be a grey tabby and the cat on the right looks like he's orange with some tabby markings and black paws. The sea lion has a pale brown coat. Colors : Mostly grey, but the presence of green and blue gives off a fresh feel. This card is all about the preciousness of friendship and bonds. By deciding …

3 cats are standing on top of a wall while they are dropping various fragile objects on the ground. A fair amount of debris is already scattered around on both sides of the wall. They are mostly pushing colorful vases, but one of the cats is in the process of making a large clear quartz point crystal fall, while staring at us with a content look on their face. There is an arched opening in the wall, with a wind chime hanging inside. Thick foliage makes up for the lower half of the background, while a blue sky with scattered white clouds covers the upper half of the background. Colors : Very varied. In the cool/neutral range. From what we can see and feel by l…

A tortoiseshell cat with yellow eyes is lying on the ground with 2 apples resting on her head, one on top of the other. The biggest apple is red and the smallest is yellow. Behind her we can see part of an apple tree covered in yellow and orange leaves and full of deep red apples which are mostly growing in pairs. Also behind the cat, on the horizon line, we can see 2 other trees with a yellow and orange foliage. On the beige ground, all around the cat, we can see many orange dead leaves. In the background, the sky appears to be pale blue. Colors : Orange In tarot numerology, 2s are about balance, duality and change. This cat perfectly demonstrates the 'bala…

An orange tabby cat is sitting on a doorstep, her back facing us. The arched double doors are open wide towards the inside. They seem to be made of wood and have metal hinges and handles decorated with flame designs. The handles have a salamander-like shape. The wall is made of brownish grey stone. The ground, inside and outside, is made of white square tiles. Behind the cat there are 2 low steps. Behind them, there are 2 lit candles, one on the left and one on the right. There might be other candles outside, as we can see a yellow glow close to the ground on the left and right of the cat. It also seems to be reflected on the cat's body. Other than that, not much is v…

2 cats are standing nose to nose in front of a lightly eroded cast stone fountain. The one on the left has short brown hair and the one on the right is a shorthaired calico. They are standing on a pale beige ground and behind them and the fountain, there are 2 arched openings in a beige wall (probably an adobe wall, made from sand and other material). Through the openings, we can see a calm body of water, the beginning of a grassy cliff on the right and a blue sky filled with white clouds. Colors : The warm beige and brown get the attention, but the coolness of the blue and grey in the center doesn't go unnoticed. In the book, the author explains that this ca…

A black cat is standing on a spot of bare ground, his eyes closed, nose up and mouth open. He seem to either be at the top of a hill or at the edge of a cliff. On each side of him, a yellow-orange gonfalon with the Sky Clan's emblem is planted in the ground. The flags' fabric is quite badly torn at the bottom. In front of him, in the front plan of the card, we can see grass getting taller and denser the further away we go from the top/edge of the hill/cliff. Behind the cat, we can see a large area of pink something. It could be low clouds with the rising/setting Sun reflecting on them. Or it could be a body of water, again with Sun reflecting on it. I personally think…

Hello all, I have the pleasure to announce that I'll be resuming my beloved Mystical Cats Tarot study group on this very forum! ;D I was already half-way through (on ATF), so I will copy-paste the cards I've done over the course of a couple of weeks. Hopefully, this will give time to people who might be interested in joining and commenting to do so a bit at a time, instead of having a hugh wall of posts appear all of a sudden! When I'll be done with the copy-pasting, I should be ready to resume the study and will most likely post at the same rhythm I used to, which was an average of 2 cards per week / 8 cards a month. I guess I can do a bit of an introduction t…
