Tarot challenge becomes challenging
Mar. 12th, 2018 08:47 pmI'm doing Wyntercraft's 30-Day Tarot Challenge, except not very well.
Yesterday's task was to draw a card in your art style, which I procrastinated getting around to until the day ended and I had successfully blown it off. It's been an incredibly long time since I did visual art and I don't really remember how to do it properly any more, and I didn't feel like dealing with doing it improperly. About the only thing I can draw freehand anymore is eyes. Maybe later I'll draw the Ten of Pentacles but I'll make it a Ten of Eyes, Idunno. Two freelance projects came down the pike at me this weekend so I'm suddenly a little busier than I'd planned on being.
As a result I haven't actually gotten around to today's challenge either, which is to memorize the meanings of five Major Arcana. I'm going to go review my various resources and take some notes in the old notebook about the first five (by which I mean zero through four--the Fool, the Magician, the High Priestess, the Empress, and the Emperor). I'll try to take a few notes on the reverse meanings as well; the Tarot flashcards app I've got has some good keywords for those. I've got basically an hour before bedtime, so I think I can do it in that time.
