21: The World
 
 

Surrounding by an elliptical wreath of
living foliage is a female figure dancing
joyously, a short wand in each hand. In
the 4 corners of the card are the heads
of the four beings of apocalypse, hovering
protectively outside the wreath. Her legs
form a cross, as do those of the Hanged
Man, but she stands upright, supported
by the ether, the very fabric of the World;
her dance is of the sensitive life, of joy
attained in the body, of the soul's intoxication
in the World-turned-paradise.

Upright, it signifies completion, success,
triumph in all things, perfection,
fulfillment; the path of liberation and
enlightenment; the admiration of others.

Drawer gains 1 point to each of his
ability scores which is two or more below
racial maximum.
 

Reversed, it signifies imperfection,
failure, lack of vision, failure to complete
task; FEAR of CHANGE or travel, fixity, permanence,
stagnation.

After 1-4 days, drawer will begin to
develop an increasing distrust of strange
places: other cities or countries, dungeons,
wildernesses, new taverns, etc.
Within an additional 2-8 days this will
become full-blown paranoia, with drawer
believing that everyone and everything
outside his home (eventually, his
chambers) is out to get him, and that any
so-called ?friend,, or ?loved one?, who
tries to get the drawer to come out into
the world is clearly part of the conspiracy.
