The most mysterious card in my deck appears to be the Three of Cups. It features just a single, big ship in the middle of the sky, taking up the majority of the card. Nobody is seen on the ship - it looks abandoned or sort of lonely. Below it sits the three cups. It makes you ask questions: where is the ship going... is anyone on the ship... who is in charge?
My Page, or "Princess," of Swords card looks very sad. There is a woman sitting in the middle of a barren field. The leaves on the trees have fallen - it is Winter according to the top of the card - and there is a layer of fog. Two black crows sit next to the woman as she looks off in the distance with a depressing expression.
I think Strength is the most empowering card in my deck. There is a woman standing up next to a lion. The woman has bright yellow hair and her hand in on her hip. She looks to her side, with her head held high. She seems prideful, like she knows she has power. The lion appears to look straight ahead, right at the reader. It almost looks ready to attack; or maybe it's tamed but protective of the woman.
The Chariot screams "healing" to me. It features a woman holding a baby, looking lovingly at it. I think the baby is either crying or looking for help because its hand is reaching out towards the woman. Behind the woman is a wolf and a white ghostly-looking horse chariot. The wolf may be protective like the lion in Strength, and the horse seems to be giving someone a ride. The woman - presumably the baby's mother - just looks very calm and caring: she is helping and taking care of the baby.
Lastly, The Empress is very peaceful. A woman stands atop a cloud, with a calm and carefree expression. Her arm is extended towards a winged baby - perhaps Cupid - shining light. Above her, a white dove flies around her. I have always considered a dove to be a gentle creature, and associated it with love and peace.
