Miss Portinari
"This is the Daughter of the King. This is the Virgin of Eternity. This is she that the Holy One hath wrested from the Giant Time, and the prize of them that have overcome Space. This is she that is set upon the Throne of Understanding. Holy, Holy, Holy is her name, not to be spoken among men. For Koré they have called her, and Malkah, and Betulah, and Persephone." --from "The Universe" - the last trump in the Tarot deck... your post reminded me of this passage and I finally found it in my tarot book just now :)

I think I need to add a little explanation about this particular post. Firstly tho thank you for the kindness you have shown and for caring enough to reply here you truely are amazing. This song was not really about Fae (me) tho she is grieving bad at the moment, I believe thats a good thing. This is about Ur (herself). Stoot once said a long time ago and close to launch that this was his and Tiny Specks baby and we responded that we were her, midwives, aunts and that we would try our hardest to raise her. The image of the girl in an autumn day and the goodbye glitch girl got me thinking, Ur had a spirit, lively and bright and fun, but more she had a heart, we felt her love us and we loved her in return and more than that she has a soul which is why we feel her loss so very deeply, Ur was not just pixels and light, she was a friend and just as we miss Ur I am sure she misses us and that was what this song was trying to express.

I've moved to Second Life, where I'm the uninterestingly named "Missportinari Resident". I have a garden and I breed butterflies: www.flickr.com/photos/missp... ...some day I hope to learn enough building skills to create some Glitch-style herbs! And a tarot deck. But that might take me some time :) Come visit me if you're on the grid!

Notes
Associated Giants: Mab, Pot, Tii, Zille. Ruled by Hairball (and exalted in Hairball).
Year 22 marked a revolutionary period in Glitch: the start of a new era of imagination. Year 23 will be no less tumultuous, for even though the first wave of novelty has worn off, much of Ur is still in flux and new imaginings continue to happen without warning. This year is especially connected with the herb Hairball, as well as the Giants Lem, Cosma, and Tii.
This will be an excellent time to build up your stash of resources. Be mindful, however, that spending too much time hoarding wealth will prevent you from actually doing stuff. Is there something you?ve been hoarding that you could use in a new and interesting way?

The Yeti: 51th of Fever @ 4pm - 5th of Junuary @ 7:59am
Associated Giants: Friendly, Humbaba, Lem, Pot. Ruled by Yellow Crumb.
Queen of Planks
Ideas are born in a flash, but it takes more than imagination to build a tower. After inspiration comes work, and the Queen of Planks represents the persistence and commitment required to nurture creative impulses into reality. She also possesses the power of creative reflection - the ability to take a critical second look at a project before jumping in. Focus on your long-term goals rather than new excitements, and be sure to keep plenty of drinks around.

The Piggy: 45th of Bruise @ 4pm - 1st of Fever @ 7:59am
Associated Giants: Humbaba, Mab, Pot, Spriggan, Zille. Ruled by Rubeweed; Purple is exalted therein.
Six of Quills ? Science
It is important to note that this is not the dull Science of textbooks, but rather a living process, a state of being where the intellectual faculties are perfectly balanced. Those born under the Sign of the Piggy are in a good position to channel this energy, for their stable and dedicated nature is the perfect foundation for scientific thought. A little number-crunching will help you get the most out of your resources; Yellow Crumb is your ally.

The Firefly: 8th of Widdershins @ 8am - 33rd of Widdershins @ 11:59pm
Associated Giants: Alph, Friendly, Grendaline, Pot. Ruled by Silvertongue.
King of Quoins
Transforming energy into wealth is the main ambition of the King of Quoins, and this card often signifies the type of Glitch who enjoys amassing large collections of valuable items. They usually put a great deal of thought into optimizing their efforts, and in many cases they are badgers as well as collectors. There is definitely a tendency to get carried away, and the work may become repetitive and tedious. Fortunately, those imagined under the Sign of the Firefly are highly creative, and should be able to find new ways to bring excitement and adventure to their work. When all else fails, a firefly can always fly away to find a new dream.

The Crab: 26th of Fever @ 12am - 51st of Fever @ 3:59pm
Associated Giants: Grendaline, Mab, Spriggan. Ruled by Purple; Silvertongue is exalted therein.
Ten of Quoins ? Wealth
The value of material wealth is neither objective nor static; what seemed like a lot of currants when you were a young Glitch certainly won?t seem like much to you now, for example. If wealth is to maintain its value it must be used, and now will be a good time to imagine new things to do with your existing resources. Keep watch for changes that will impact the value of individual items ? there may be a chance to hoard some things that will become rare in the near future.

The Sloth: 34th of Widdershins @ 12am - Recurse @ 3:59pm
Associated Giants: Humbaba, Mab, Spriggan, Zille. Ruled by Rookswort; Gandlevery is exalted therein.
Six of Quoins - Success
This is an excellent card, for the Sloth is an Earth Sign, sympathetic to the suit of Quoins and in a perfect position to take advantage of this positive energy. It is also a good card in the context of this particular year, since it represents a harmony between Earth and Sky. Six is a number of balance, and is associated with Yellow Crumb and the Sun; but the card is ruled by Purple, the fastest herb, the herb of visions and the Moon. The suggestion seems to be that success is a dynamic balance requiring tireless work to maintain. In the end it may only be temporary, as fleeting as a purple journey, but fun while it lasts.

Cosma contemplated the fields of crimson and thought it seemed a little harsh, all one colour, all for war. There ought to be something, she reasoned, to balance it out: an herb for joy and love. She decided that she would imagine this second herb, and it would be blue, like the butterflies of the air.
Friendly looked down from the starry night sky, and with his blessing the new flower grew into a blue starburst shape. Then Alph took the silver sparks from a particularly interesting explosion and infused them into the petals and leaves.
The sparkling blue herb spread across the bog, and any Glitch who munched it became inspired with brilliant ideas and witty words. And so the second herb became known as silvertongue.
