I have a thing about stars. I have star jewellery, bags, shoes, and shirts but don't think I've ever seen the sea and the stars together. That's the real thing and it's going on the list.
Since once I sat upon a promontory,
And heard a mermaid on a dolphin's back
Uttering such dulcet and harmonious breath,
That the rude sea grew civil at her song:
And certain stars shot madly from their spheres,
To hear the sea-maid's music.
William Shakespeare
There is something that feels abundant about this card. I wonder if it is because the woman mermaid's shape reminds me of a cornucopia? :)
ReplyDeleteIt is a very abundant image. I like the roundedness of it like a circle of loving, giving and receiving.
DeleteI think having good memories can be very helpful to be hopeful for the future :)
ReplyDeleteYes it is. I was with my aunt yesterday and we were talking of how making memories is so much more important than having things.

ReplyDeleteI was searching for a quote on mermaids and it was the first time I've read. Makes me wonder what other treasures are unmined:)
