So Cassandra Jean has finished the complete Shadowhunter Tarot, so for the next … seventy-something days I’ll be posting a card a day (okay, maybe not every day — I tend to get distracted!) in order, from the first card to the last. Some will be under spoiler cuts; some you’ll have seen before — I’ll explain why each character has the card they have.
We’ve moved on from the Major Arcana to the minor Arcana — the first suit is the suit of Rings, which takes the place of the suit of Pentacles. Each Rings card shows the family ring of a particular Shadowhunter family and some of the members. The Six of Rings shows the Starkweather family in the TID era — Aloysius and the portrait of Adele that Tessa encounters in Clockwork Prince.
Such a sad family!
Sad indeed. I kind of feel for him here, which is a little surprising.
I love these cards! I bought a tarot app after Sarah Ockler recomended Tarot for Writers, and I started using it for character development for my new book. But it was so eerily accurate that I ended up using it on myself, and wow. It is genuinely spot on. I've been thinking about buying an actual deck. :)
