Symbolism of The World
The World symbolizes the grand completion of The Major Arcana in The Somnia Tarot. A dreamer, situated in a floating bed by the sea, begins to recount the writings within The Fool's dream journal. Tales of complex dramas and transformation permeate the book's contents. The roaring ocean swells in harmony with the turn of each page. A woven wreath of vines surrounds the dreamer, symbolizing fulfillment and closure. The four posts of the bed include the four elements, The Minor Arcana, and traditional placements of Scorpio, Leo, Aquarius, and Taurus.
Connection to Personal Journey
In the dreamer's hands, a leather bound book reads "Journal of Dreams and Nightmares", which relates to the therapeutic journaling process that has served as the basis for creating my works. The journal, originally featured in the self-portrait of The Fool, is now held by my sister, Sage. I have shared my dream experiences with her since childhood. Sage has been a part of my creative process since adolescence, often assisting and modeling for the female characters in my work. Featuring family and close friends is important to my process, as they have offered me solace during the struggle with my sleep disorder. I am forever thankful for the energy and support that they have lent to my creations.
