Six of Swords
Journey over water, helping hand, a new place/relocation, new ways of thinking.
05 Executive (Hierophant)
Comformity, the institution.
While the traditional Hierophant is also spiritual advisor, the images I see look more churchy or religious. Following the order of things.
Warrior of Wands (Knight)
Alluring, cunning, charismatic, erotic.
Traditionally, this card is kinetic energy, not potential energy. It is usually about movement and action, but I like the sense of stalking and readiness and confidence. This scene may get moved to another card, but the image itself is very powerful to me and really speaks of wands.
Lover of Pentacles (Page)
Ready to dive into hard work. Satisfaction with making something.
The Hanged Man
Seeing things from a new perspective. Surprises. Letting go of control.
Seven of Wands
Outnumbered but with a strategic advantage.
The Lovers
Basically, It’s Love, no matter who it is.
Sophos representing High Priestess
Mystical knowledge, the veil, the beginning of the water that flows through the journey.

The Magician
Control of natural forces. First time our journeyer sees the ability to control the world around him, even if he hasn’t yet. I’m thinking Erickson’s industry vs inferiority stage
