Another interesting question would be what character of the Chinese Zodiac that we were born as, and/or which 1 we are most like. (Although I was born as the Rooster on 10/31/93, I’m really most like the Rabbit, since I’m so playful and imaginative.

I am a: chinesenewyear.net/zodiac/rooster/

The personality and characteristics attributed to the rooster are near spot on… the health part the most especially.

One or two aspects… the weak ones, are not spot on, but I dare not say why here.

I wouldn’t want to be anything but the rooster, as that is what I am.

The ideal is the Rabbit, for adventurous frenzy, and charming exhibition of storybook merry-go-rounds (Bunnies like Lewis Caroll do love childish novelties after all), but, since I’m ALSO born a rooster factually, then the hard work aspect could personify how I’m Justice in the tarot, pouring out immense efforts to grasp and archive the fundamental aspects of phenomena.

Many elements contained within this card embody me, or have personal meaning of things I’ve seen and believe in or have experienced: Scorpio… the One Power of the universe… the Caduceus… Hermes the Messenger… the Mystical

Description

According to astrological tradition the Lion is Leo—a fire sign, the Bull or calf is Taurus—an earth sign, the Man is Aquarius—an air sign, and the Eagle is Scorpio—a water sign. These signs also represent the classical four elements.

In some decks the wreath is an ouroborous biting its own tail. In the Thoth Tarot designed by Aleister Crowley, this card is called “The Universe.”

Interpretation

The World represents an ending to a cycle of life, a pause in life before the next big cycle beginning with the fool. The figure is male and female, above and below, suspended between the heavens and the earth. It is completeness. It is also said to represent cosmic consciousness; the potential of perfect union with the One Power of the universe. It tells us full happiness is to also give back to the world: sharing what we have learned or gained.

According to Robert M. Place in his book The Tarot, the four beasts on the World card represent the fourfold structure of the physical world—which frames the sacred center of the world, a place where the divine can manifest. Sophia, meaning Prudence or Wisdom (the dancing woman in the center), is spirit or the sacred center, the fifth element. It is the fourth of the Cardinal virtues in the Tarot. The lady in the center is a symbol of the goal of mystical seekers. In some older decks, this central figure is Christ, in others it is Hermes. Whenever it comes up, this card represents what is truly desired.

The central figure on The World card used in newer decks… The Lady
