TheMoek1:

I'm a Christian, too, and I also stumbled across this because of the new SP album (can't freaking wait), but this story is certainly not a load of bull. I don't know anything about Tarot cards, they very well may be, but I think this particular story is very beautiful and describes anyone who has found enlightenment's story wonderfully. Learning so much about balance and finding happiness by giving happiness and love to others. So, I'm only defending the story, not the card system.

thank you

Great vid, I really enjoyed watching. Symbolism is an easy thing to underestimate, and to those who learn the true nature of symbols and start knowing at least some of the interpretations, can easily see the relevance of thing so simple and misunderstood as the Tarot deck. This is an ancient thing with very few living who understand the signifigance of the information coded into it, and once understood, the nature of the universe unfolds and enlighenment is acheived. As above, so below. 5*'s

I have read tarot for most of my life...I have heard the fool's journey explained and told many, many times...but never in such an enlightened way...it is clear to see you truly understand the fool's journey and I commend you on such a wonderful video...also spyro rocks!

@84PooBubbles

The Cards don't need "Defending": They can hold their own, trust me! It's far more than a pretty little story, Sister Christian...

[creekytom]

i knew that song sounded familiar i had spent many a hour playing the origional 3 spyro's

The movie The Ultimate Gift parallels the major tarot cards and hero's journey in an astonishing way. Look for The Ultimate Gift on you tube.

Also, enjoy this great song from the movie:

@Maniac50AE The more we know, the more we know we DON'T know. If I could take my brain and put it on a DVD I would totally mail it to you, but I can't (at least, not that I know of), so in liue of a brain/DVD i can only suggest diligent exercise of the mind/body/spirit in all areas, be it from a book, a conversation, or anything that you ingest in your day to day experience know that it is a symbol that is expressing your next chapter of progression if you can see it. Start looking. :)

@yawehking yes, that does help but to be frank, i might have exaggerated the "very litte."  i want to know all that you know, i can actually understand movies and videos that are referencing the sun deities and such. Like Underworld: Rise of the Lycans is the story of "The War of the Heavens." You might have heard of this story as the war between the God's Angels and Lucifer and his but thats not the first recorded account. See, like you said, though i do know much i know theres alot more.

@Maniac50AE Start with Joseph Campell's "Hero With a Thousand Faces". I hate to give advice, but Joseph Cambpell is great for understanding archetypes and their place in psychology and hollywood. Hope that helps. In Lak'ech
