The SGA Tarot Deck 1
I finally have some cards to show you out of the Tarot Deck I've been making (Complete list of Cards and Characters):

10. Carson - The Wheel of Fortune

10. The Wheel of Fortune: this is the card of fate and karma. This reminds us that we have very little control as to what life might throw at us. So, with no guarantees of what the future will hold, invest in the present and hope you can create your own luck and the wheel will spin in your favour.
I chose this card for Carson, because I think, in his line of work, regardless of how much he tries, sometimes fate has another idea.
12. John - The Hanged Man

12. The Hanged Man: this card is an opportunity for you to look at life through a different perspective; it can mean some sort of self-sacrifice.
I chose this card for John because of his tendency towards self-sacrifice (and because I thought he'd look pretty hanging like that)
14. Teyla - The Temperance

14. Temperance: with this card you stand with one foot firmly on the ground and one foot in the water. This represents your actions in the world and your emotions. It’s a question of mixing and blending the two. It’s also a holiday card and one that encourages you to experience different cultures.
Teyla is one of the most centered characters in this show, even though she stands as a bridge between the Lanteans and the people of Pegasus.
18. Sora - The Moon

18. The Moon: things look very different under moonlight; they can be a bit scary. This is the card of illusions and delusions; your emotions will come to the surface and you will need an outlet for them. Our dreams and intuition may become stronger; if you embrace and understand them you will become stronger.
I chose this card for Sora because she is both deceiving and ruled by her emotions. Notice how she shows one hand while hiding the other.

It's the strip of belly that has convinced me that John should definitely be The Hanged Man.

If that's okay?
Because then I'm gonna print 'em out, laminate 'em, and then use 'em instead of my regular deck for awhile.
Poor deck's getting a little worn. *pets deck fondly*
Oh, you're doing a fantastic job, m'dear. Absolutely lovely.

The Hanged Man is a particularly interesting card, no? :) The Man who has seen the truth of the Magician's power, and is turned inside-out by the un-reality of the world around us, completely unable to set himself free any longer. The power of the minor arcana, though known to him, slips completely through his fingers like sand. Thankfully, in divination it's not so bleak (good for John! :). But if any character on Atlantis were to be the "Hanged Man", I would pick him.
I am absolutely stunned with the beauty of the Wheel of Fortune card. It is spot-on, absolutely awesome! It gives me chills to look at it. Teyla as Temperance and Sora as The Moon are both spot-on as well.
I can't wait for more cards! :)
