Expanding the Tarot Deck.

      For those that  have watched my blogs and videos. I  am a traditionalist.  I  tend to  stay away from the eclectic concepts that  I  believe are tainting paganism.  But I  can't help  what  I  dream at night. Well this morning I  have a thinking dream, well that  is what I  call  them.  These are dreams that  I  have around 3:00 in the morning and I  plan things out.  Well  this dream was a dream about the Tarot deck.  In my dream I  was telling myself to  expand the Tarot deck by  creating new cards for the minor arcana.

      First one was a "General" card.  every nation in modern times and in history has had a military leader that  stood out and represented that  nation or kingdom.  The military  leader wasn't always the king/queen.  And when you think  about the Tarot deck suits representing the changing seasons, we must remember that  nature can be forceful.  SO I  was thinking that  the "General" card would represent the brutal aspect of a season or suit. 

      The next card that  I  thought needed to  be made was a "Princess" card.  In most tarot decks there is a King/Prince duo. But the Queen lacks her duo partner.  The "Princess" would represent the innocence and gentleness of the season or suit. She won't be the damsel in distress, but the aspect of a younger queen that  is still leaning about the world.

     So  that  would make a total of  eight new cards in this concept that  I  had. What  do  you think  of this idea?  I  would love to  hear some feedback from everyone.
