Reply to this post with "EWOKS!" and I will pick three of your icons for you to talk about in your own journal, and then keep the meme going by making this offer on your post.
[personal profile]muccamukk picked "tarot icon 1" (which I'm using for this post) as well as "blessed are the whores and witches" and "sexy librarian" (part 1). I don't know how to add media here, so I'll just post them one at a time and use the icons in question when I do.
This is a picture of the High Priestess card (herein called "Inner Voice") from the Osho Zen tarot deck.
It's the deck I've been reading with for a solid ten years now. It has its biases - as all decks do - but it's beautiful and colourful and not super hetero and has a lot of PoC in it, all of which is nice when you don't know who you'll be reading for. I also like that all of the cards have a name - "Inner Voice" is one, sure, but, for example, the four of fire is "participation", the knight of earth ("rainbows" in this deck, for some reason) is "Slowing Down" - which made it way easier for novice-me to get the hang of what the cards were about.
I made this picture into an icon because - for a very brief while, at the beginning of 2016 - I was doing a "daily (ish) card" thing where I pulled a card out of my deck and then blogged about what that card meant in my own understanding. I think I just happened to have a good picture of this card in my files already - took it for a reading I'd done at the end of 2015, I think - and went with it.
