Looking at these cards again, I realize how large a role the colours, textures and overall composition of the images play in my infatuation with the deck. There is such clear thought and purpose in the images; intent. And the side borders are a really great choice, I think. I wonder why LS doesn't use this method in their other decks.

Or is it a sleeping woman and her cat, framed by the power of the elements, in a transparent egg, perhaps symbolizing the creative potential inherent in us all? I usually see the World as having achieved success of some sort- this card seems to steer me towards seeing a new creative process- and probably something grand especially something truly of yourself.
