Tarot memory share [Phoenix]

The room you enter this time is an ostentatious fortune tellers tent. Colourful silks drape the walls with intricate golden constellations embroidered on the ceiling. Various crystals, candles, magic 8 balls, and other superstitious sundries are scattered throughout the tent.

In the centre of the room is a table with ten chairs around it, and three cards laid out for you:

HIEROPHANT, STRENGTH, SUN

[ RULES | TURN-IN ]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

Devil, too. Looks like a classic "deal with a devil" sorta situation to me.

That's more literal than what I think the card is supposed to be, but you're right that we're operating on a more dumbed-down level here. And it doesn't get more classic than that.

Like Sholmes said, it's in everyone's best interest to make things obvious.

Even so, a hunger for power wouldn't be too far off the mark for this one either.

We have to decide the difference based on Priestess/Temperance or World/Universe. Temperance is straightforward—restraint and moderation and balance. Boring. Priestess is holy and feminine, with divine inspiration and intuition. World and Universe are more or less the same thing: the success and satisfaction at the end of the journey. Completion.

Huh. With that in mind, I guess the other two feel more like World and Universe to me, but I'll be damned if I know which one's which.

Could be that my aim's way off in general.

Yeahhh... It's hard when they're basically the exact same thing. So I think we have to go for cues on scale. What's bigger and what's smaller? What's a "world" and what's a "universe"?

The second memory is talking about actual locations on an actual planet, presumably. Whereas the first memory seems a bit broader than a physical world. So I'd say Universe, World, Hunger.
