hey there! you got the knight of staves, drawn reversed. knights are cards of action regardless, but staffs are the suit of passion, so this is one hot-headed card! a volcano erupts in the background, and a knight charges forward on his white stallion, whose legs are rearing upwards. the knight gazes at us defiantly, holding a wooden staff pointed at us as his weapon. his cape and the feather from his helmet evoke the image of flames [staffs do represent the element of fire] and his horse’s mane and tail are a dark grey that billow out like clouds of smoke. upright, this card is kind of like the gryffindor poster child: charging forward bravely into the unknown in a way that borders on recklessness and will either end in glory or total disaster. there’s a fearlessness to this card, a surge forward that is being taken regardless of risk. drawing this card in reverse, however, has a much different implication. it’s time to hold back, to look at your cards before laying them down on the table. your impulse may be to press forward, but now is a good time to think carefully, and look before you leap. 

Currently locked in a struggle over whether or not you mean ‘Malfoy’ Hamlet being all pale and cruel or ‘Mallory’ Hamlet as in Lancelot and Gawain rocking up @ Elsinore to get the party started
