Give a Tarot Card a Song!

6 of Swords - Go In Peace, Sam Baker

 

I love the way 'Caroline' sang this song on Vampire Diaries, so I'll link that one too. 

 

When I see the devil tarot card I instantly think about "Emperor's new clothes" from Panic! at the disco. The devil and the hunger for material things and pleasure, the domination, gains without thinking about consequences goes well with the lyrics. There's also a obsessive and addicted mindset. And he dresses kinda like the devil 😂

 

The queen of cups is one that passes me Yemoja (yoruba diety) vibes. But this is quite personal, because is a diety I work with and my first and favorite deck (tarot of the divine) has Yemoja in the illustration.

The songs would be my favorites related to this diety (they're in portuguese).

 

 

 

 

 

The Tower card.

 

 

The Devil
The song and music video are just perfect. It channels what is our material world and how that drives our desires.

love this song, i agree

I will try finding piano music… It is very emotional I think, and don’t “disturb” my thoughts.

Not heard this before and I like it. Nevertheless I'd have to go with the obvious: A Kind of Magic, performed by Freddie Trismegistus himself. The power of the man! There are times I swear he's creating roses and lilies just off camera.

 

 

Quoting that for the pure quality of it, and for the moniker "Freddie Trismegistus". That's a keeper. 😁

 

I may have posted this already. I've always associated it with the Wheel of Fortune ever since I was 13 or so. Whatever you think of the Dead, Robert Hunter's lyrics are some of the most Tarot-y out there:
 

 

And of course, there's this one. And not just because it has "Devil" in the title - this character definitely has the tether around his neck:
 

 

 

 

A couple more. RWS 5 of Pents:
 

 

Death would fit Black Peter, Mountains of the Moon, and some others. But this one is really nice:
 

 

Posting Mountains of the Moon anyway. Death and the Moon are in it, and some Pents cards and Courts...it's FULL of cards. Hunter was familiar with Tarot, of course, but I don't think he was a reader. He just had a very poetic mind that tapped into a lot of the same themes.
(Here are the lyrics. What these annotations don't mention is what a carrion crow is doing when it bows and bends to someone. But that's pretty obvious. Happy hunting! http://artsites.ucsc.edu/gdead/agdl/moon.html)

I am not sure what the guidelines are, but for some reason the Knight of Wands reminds me of "You can be the boss" by Lana Del Ray. Just kind of sensual, haha

5 of Pentacles for me is absolutely Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah

I think it could be a Mercury Tarot for sure, with all the marvelous fantasy world of our beloved Freddie 😍, so many facettes, he could be on each card !

For me, the Fool is Now I'm here song !

I just pulled out the Wheel of Fortune and as I was looking up meanings (I'm new to this) I heard the Chevaliers de Sangreal in my head. It's the song that plays at the end of the Da Vinci Code, and one of my favourite pieces of music. I think I will always hear this music with this card. It may have just become my favourite card 💜
