The Ferryman's Journey
Charon, the ferryman of souls across the River Styx, is actually not as frightening as he seems if we perceive this journey as a departure from all pressing problems and anxieties. This is a calm, quiet harbor, with the gentle splash of water under the oars.
Transformation and New Meaning
It's worth remembering that any road - whether by water, land, or through one's soul - is always some kind of change, transformation, and new meanings for everything old.
Visual Description
A lone cloaked figure rows a small boat across a still, rippled body of water surrounded by steep cliffs. Several swords stand upright in the water and near the rocky shore on the right side of the scene. A large crescent moon hangs low over the horizon and thin clouds streak the sky. The Roman numeral VI is visible at the bottom of the card.
