Comparative Tarot

This card shows an adult man, of seeming royalty or wealth. The tabard he wears is adorned with 5-petaled red flowers, as well as a column along the edge of white lilies. From the red & blue hat atop his head hangs a gem. In his right hand he holds a globe of the planet Earth. In his left hand he holds a long staff with a quartz crystal at its length. He stands at the end of a castle's walls, looking out into the world. The land below him shows a sandy shoreline and small hill of rock that the waves splash upon.

Comments from the Book:
The keyword for this card is "Watch & Wait".
"This card means the wait before plans bear fruit. Also kindness, generosity, intellect. A well-balanced, creative person. Ingenuity, fulfillment, good things coming."

Personal Comments:
I find this card to be very "inactive". The man in the card may be thinking, pausing, and reflecting, but there isn't anything actively happening at least with this fellow. It feels like things are "in the works". Something has been set in motion, and now it is time to wait for them to come into effect.
