DanielJUK Posted 4 hours ago Posted 4 hours ago I've been thinking about this card recently and really see them as building a Pentagram or Pentacle these days. In some decks, it's more visible than others, this is RWS and it's even more obvious in Wiccan / Pagan style decks. A Pentagram has the five elements on the points, Earth, Air, Fire, Water, and Spirit. This looks like they are making an upright symbol, maybe to bring balance in all areas, rather than the conflict of the card? Or maybe it represents a Pentacle, that could represent manifestation and a tangible result? Turning scattered into structure. It's a grounding symbol. It's funny how you still see new things in the cards that give you a new layer to think about 🙂

It's funny how you still see new things in the cards that give you a new layer to think about 🙂 A detail that, for whatever reasons, stand out to me is that the guy at the back, to the right, is holding something that is outside of our view. His arm is very outstretched, and it seems a little awkward when his other hand is trying to maneuver a large wand. So I think he’s doing something we can’t see.. Maybe he’s holding onto something for stability?
