Citing others' works in FFXIV is always important to avoid plagiarism and to respect the contributions of your scholarly peers. 😜
(I am feeling a little better today than two days ago. Thank you all so much for that. 💙😻)

Mangled Plato's Chariot allegory: the horses are your inner Eleanor and Chidi. One is amoral, too impulsive, wild; the other, immobilized by ethical dilemmas. You have to control both extremes to steer your chariot down your life's road.
One more, then I gotta run (road trip today). The Moon cracks me up 'cause I can't not see Velma from Scooby-Doo. Jinkies!
Here's Strength and Death. This is just a personal preference, but I don't like Strength cards where the lion's jaws are being forced (or worse, in some decks the lion is being killed). Strength works for me here. I can't remember what I meant to say about Death - I took the pics a few days ago. 💀
I really like the Lovers card - the taller of the couple gives me soft butch vibes, and the way the fae is holding hands with them both could be read as a poly relationship. Is that what the artist had in mind? Probably not, but I'll take it! The artist is Kwon Shina, by the way. I meant to mention that before. She is a Korean manwha artist.
Another thing I like is that much of the overt Hermetic, Christian, and Kabbalah symbolism has been stripped out. I've never really jibed with the Christian stuff, and I'm increasingly uncomfortable with Kabbalah in my tarot (for appropriation reasons) so this is a more comfortable deck for me. The creator, Rome Choi, is a Buddhist. I don't know if that's the reason, though.
Dreaming Way tarot
I keep meaning to write about this deck. It's not my holy grail of decks but I really like a lot about it. The art is lovely, for starters. I don't know much about Korean manwha (think manga) but I am told this is done in manwha style. It is probably not intentional, but I get a strong genderqueer vibe from the way some of the figures are depicted.
