ewwgirls ~ Strength (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strength_%28Tarot_card%29) Arcana (http://megamitensei.wikia.com/wiki/Strength_Arcana).
Usually we think of strength in physical terms - big arms, powerful legs - but there is also inner strength. Inner strength comes from an exercise of the heart muscle. It is perseverance, courage, resolve and composure - qualities that help us endure when times are tough. In the past, a person with inner strength was commonly said to have character; he or she could be counted on in the darkest moments. Card 8 represents this energy of quiet determination. Strength is not a flashy card, but one that is solid and reliable.

Naesala ~

cawing ~ Magician (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Magician_%28Tarot_card%29) Arcana (http://megamitensei.wikia.com/wiki/Magician_Arcana)
What makes the Magician so powerful? First, he is not afraid to act. He believes in himself and is willing to put that belief on the line. He also knows what he intends to do and why. He doesn't hesitate because he understands his situation exactly. The Magician can focus with single-minded determination. As long as he remembers the divine source of his power, the Magician remains the perfect conduit for miracles.

Sealand ~

defactonation ~ Chariot (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Chariot_(Tarot_card)) Arcana (http://megamitensei.wikia.com/wiki/Chariot_Arcana)
The Chariot represents the positive aspects of the ego. A healthy ego is one that is strong and self-assured. It knows what it wants and how to get it. We can get annoyed at someone whose ego is too healthy, but we often turn to that person to lead us through difficult moments. We know he or she won't be wishy-washy.

Sherry Birkin ~

vinodejerez ~ Priestess (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_High_Priestess) Arcana (http://megamitensei.wikia.com/wiki/Priestess_Arcana)
In readings, the High Priestess poses a challenge to you to go deeper - to look beyond the obvious, surface situation to what is hidden and obscure. She also asks you to recall the vastness of your potential and to remember the unlimited possibilities you hold within yourself. The High Priestess can represent a time of waiting and allowing. It is not always necessary to act to achieve your goals. Sometimes they can be realized through a stillness that gives desire a chance to flower within the fullness of time.

Nessiah ~

grancenturio ~ Tower (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Tower_%28Tarot_card%29) Arcana (http://megamitensei.wikia.com/wiki/Tower_Arcana)
The Tower is an unsettling card. Fire, lightning, falling on jagged rocks - definitely looks like trouble! Card 16 will not be welcomed by those who dislike change. It represents a sudden, dramatic upheaval or reversal in fortune. Usually change is gradual, giving us time to adapt, but sometimes it is quick and explosive. This is the action of the Tower.

Austria ~

steiermark ~ Moon (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Moon_%28Tarot_card%29) Arcana (http://megamitensei.wikia.com/wiki/Moon_Arcana)
Sadly, we are usually afraid of the Moon. In readings, this card often stands for fears and anxieties - the ones that come in the darkest part of the night. Card 18 also stands for illusions. It is easy to lose our way in the moonlight. Be careful not to let deceptions and false ideas lead you astray. Sometimes the Moon is a signal that you are lost and wandering aimlessly. You must find your way back to the path and your clarity of purpose.

Shinji Matou ~

failsatmastery ~ Devil (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Devil_(Tarot_card)) Arcana (http://megamitensei.wikia.com/wiki/Devil_Arcana)
Traditionally the Devil stands for evil, but it does not have this rather frightening meaning in a reading. This card lets you know that you are caught in an unhealthy, unproductive situation. You may be in the dark about something - ignorant of the truth and its implications. You may be obsessed by a person, idea, substance or pattern that you know is bad for you (or maybe you don't!). Sometimes this card reflects back the negativity that has made you doubt yourself and your future. We are prone to many errors in life. Card 15 lets us know when they are serious enough to require attention. When you see the Devil, examine your assumptions carefully. Make sure you are not working from a false picture of yourself and the situation. Hold fast to the highest vision of who you are.

On one quiz, Shelly got the Hanged Man. On the other, he got Death. I looked at both and I still don't understand any of this stuff, so I left it at that. 8D;;

Scrooge got the Emperor, which... looks about right! Shelly is just too complex for this shit, man. B|

He seems more Hanged Man-y to me, but I don't know him as well as you do. Then again, I had enough trouble coming up with Austria's and I don't think I got him down right... Maybe I shouldn't talk at all.

Hey, you know way more about this arcana stuff than I do. vOv

Ooooo. Shelly got some cool cards.

Much laughter at Scrooge.

SCROOGE FAILS TO SEE THE JOKE HERE.

BRB - LOL

With arcanas, you can look at both hidden and obvious things; hell, you can even go for the total opposite. For example, Kanji's Arcana is the Emperor. It symbolizes strength, common sense, and power which he has in spades, but it also symbolizes masculinity and the status quo. Kanji...sews. And paints. And loves cute things. It's a deliberate stab at what exactly is meant to be manly (something his Shadow directly alludes to). Take whatever you can about Shelly and look at all the cards!

Or I can just help you. Either/or. 8D;

... *s-shrug?* 8D;

XDD, okay! Let's start with simple stuff. What are some important aspects of Shelly's personality?

Those would be... his ~~work-a-holicism~~ devotion to his job and his sense of duty and honour.

So we've got duty, honor, aaaaaaaaaaand devotion. Now what are values that he holds dear? Loyalty and other stuff like that.

Loyalty and, above all else, trust!

I think a good fit for him would be the Strength Arcana! Here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strength_%28Tarot_card%29) is what wiki says on the what the card means and characteristics usually associated with it.

Winry Rockbell -

hands4healing -
This is the happiest card in the deck. It is full of joy and optimism, everything is right with the world. We are as innocent children playing in the fields without care. The Sun brings success, well-being and happiness in all spheres - material, emotional, spiritual - wherever our desires lay. When this card appears in a Tarot spread it indicates success, joy and happiness. Obstacles will be overcome, goals achieved. When badly aspected, it can indicate a stagnation through over-indulgence, too much of a good thing.

Well, this sounds a lot like Winry.

I hate doing these for Eisuke

First quiz he got Death, second he got the Devil.

and then I took it again, ignoring certain ongoing canon things that would change some of his answers and got the Fool

Rose got the Death (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_%28Tarot_card%29) card.
Death! A powerful energy indeed. Who can look at the dark, skeletal figure on Card 13 and not feel uneasy? Here we see the face of our deepest fear - our greatest unknown. We recoil from Death because we think of it as annihilation. In the tarot (and in life I would suggest) Death is not a permanent end, but a transition into a new state. Life is eternal in its essence, if not in its form. To grow, to move, to live - we must "die" to the old to give birth to the new.

Priss got the Tower (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Tower_%28Tarot_card%29) card.
The Tower is an unsettling card. Fire, lightning, falling on jagged rocks - definitely looks like trouble! Card 16 will not be welcomed by those who dislike change.

Nate [

ttlynotcable] as The Fool, because of his personal journey to figuring out his place in the world and whatnot.

Rock [

rebelbloodline] has the Death Arcana, if only because of his personal mission to try and "cast off" his bonds and be "reborn" as a new person. He also got The Fool in the other quiz.

Ragna [

darkdevouring] ended up with the Chairot, mostly implying about his struggle not only against the NOL and the world in general, but also within with the power of the Azure Grimoire. He also has high motivation and a desire to bring things the way he wants them to so that he can exact his revenge (though mostly in the way of making Terumi bleed for what he did to Ragna and his siblings).

Soma [

pimpcoats] was scored as the Emperor. Which, especially considering he's technically the reincarnation of Dracula, makes a lot more sense than it should. Power for the sake of power and all that. He's pretty ambitious, too.

And I'm leaving Yuusuke out of this if only because I don't know where canon's going to end up by that point, I'll probably do it when we get closer.

Naoto ~ Fortune Arcana (http://community.livejournal.com/dramadramaduck/4797927.html?thread=358996455#t358996455)
Obviously. I even did the quiz once for laughs, and she got she same result!

Envy ~ Devil Arcana (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Devil_%28Tarot_card%29)

Hohenheim ~ The Hanged Man (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hanged_Man_%28Tarot_card%29)

Peeta ~ The Sun (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sun_%28Tarot_card%29)

Oh? What future plots might you be planning, hm?

cannotbelieve: Judgement. Nagisa's story is all about going from "I can't believe this why does it have to be meee" to "okay, fighting evil sucks, but there are some good things about being Pretty Cure" to "this is what I have to do". She does want to be normal, but as she develops, the choice between "normal and dead" and "supernatural and protecting everyone" puts normality below Pretty Cure.

100thbrokendish: Hanged Man. Retasu initially acted out and attacked people rather than let them know about her powers, but was persuaded to stand down and convinced that she could still have friends and be happy. From then on, she not only started to work for good, but she left the group that had just been using her. She and the others fight the giant chimera and die, letting Ichigo reach the top of the GIANTTOWERFROMSPACEOUTOFNOWHERE, and she rarely ever puts herself first.

ifbymyhands: Moon. As much as I wanted to give her Magician, Moon fits her better. Her story path is all about realizing that she has been deceived and the goal she's built her life around was just a lie to keep her alive, then about deceiving others into thinking she's fine and deceiving herself into denial -- because she doesn't know what to do. Plus she's very weird, entertains magic-related ideas easily, goes along making up ridiculous stories, and, because it's Key, has plot-relevant dreams to an extent. The Moon also relates to having another self that's bad for you -- in this case, possession by an incomplete spirit that tried to kill Kano, her family and friends on several occasions.

Birkin's the Devil still.

Kid would be Temperance.

Dodger is Judgment.

Justin is the Tower.

Otacon is the Hermit. :|b

Soifon-Temperance or High Priestess

There are certain people who exude a kind of quiet composure. They may not say much, but they go about their business with an air of calm deliberation. Their presence is comforting because they are so centered. For me, this is the energy of Temperance.

The High Priestess is the guardian of the unconscious. She sits in front of the thin veil of unawareness which is all that separates us from our inner landscape. She contains within herself the secrets of these realms and offers us the silent invitation, "Be still and know that I am God."

Vanille-Star

When we turn our eyes heavenward, we no longer feel the distress of earth. The Star reminds me of the clear, high voice of a soprano. There is something otherworldly about it. All the harshness and density of everyday life has been refined away leaving only the purest essence. After being exposed to the Star, we feel uplifted and blessed.

Actually, Vanille got Moon but. I think Star fits her better. She deceives but she doesn't try to do it out of malice. The Star is more her style, distractions rather than outright lies.

Booth-Chariot

The Chariot represents the positive aspects of the ego. A healthy ego is one that is strong and self-assured. It knows what it wants and how to get it. We can get annoyed at someone whose ego is too healthy, but we often turn to that person to lead us through difficult moments. We know he or she won't be wishy-washy.

Ganta-Justice

Sometimes Justice is a signal to do what needs to be done. A time comes when responsibilities must be accepted, and accounts settled. The past will continue to haunt you if you do not recognize your mistakes and make amends for them. You will need to weigh matters carefully and perhaps make important decisions about your future course.

Morrigan-Moon

If you look around the room right now, you will (probably!) see people and objects that are comforting in their familiarity. Everything is exactly as you expect it to be. You know that if you closed your eyes and opened them, the room would be the same. But...have you ever lost the familiar to find, in its place, a world so extraordinary you can't even grasp it? This is the experience of the Moon.

Tira-Tower

The Tower is an unsettling card. Fire, lightning, falling on jagged rocks - definitely looks like trouble! Card 16 will not be welcomed by those who dislike change. It represents a sudden, dramatic upheaval or reversal in fortune. Usually change is gradual, giving us time to adapt, but sometimes it is quick and explosive. This is the action of the Tower.

HENRY > Death (http://www.learntarot.com/maj13.htm)
seems to fit him best at this point.

LASH > I can't find anything for Lash. The first quiz doesn't work, and the second one requires information that I don't have for her (ie. birth date)

V: The Tower (http://www.learntarot.com/maj16.htm)

The Tower is an unsettling card. Fire, lightning, falling on jagged rocks - definitely looks like trouble! Card 16 will not be welcomed by those who dislike change. It represents a sudden, dramatic upheaval or reversal in fortune. Usually change is gradual, giving us time to adapt, but sometimes it is quick and explosive. This is the action of the Tower.

Dumbledore: The Magician (http://www.learntarot.com/maj01.htm)

The Magician is the archetype of the active, masculine principle - the ultimate achiever. He symbolizes the power to tap universal forces and use them for creative purposes. Note his stance in the picture. He acts as a lightening rod - one arm extended up into the Divine for inspiration, the other pointing toward Earth to ground this potent energy. [note] His abilities appear magical at times because his will helps him achieve what seem to be miracles.

Italy: The Sun (http://www.learntarot.com/maj19.htm)

Brilliant. Radiant. Sparkling. So many of our words reflect (!) the power and glory of light. When we turn on the light in a room, we illuminate it so that all the dark corners are visible. When we turn on the light in our minds, we are enlightened. We see clearly and understand the truth. Both within and without, the energy of light expands our limits and makes us shine.

Mag: The Star (http://www.learntarot.com/maj17.htm)

People have always looked to the stars as a source of inspiration and hope. There is something about their twinkling light that draws us out of ourselves and up into a higher plane. When we turn our eyes heavenward, we no longer feel the distress of earth. The Star reminds me of the clear, high voice of a soprano. There is something otherworldly about it. All the harshness and density of everyday life has been refined away leaving only the purest essence. After being exposed to the Star, we feel uplifted and blessed.

Sirius: The Emperor (http://www.learntarot.com/maj04.htm)

The figure of the Emperor says much about the essential qualities of this card. We see a stern, commanding figure seated on a stone-slab throne. His back is straight, and his eyes meet ours directly. He is confident of his complete authority to rule.

Pegasus: Wheel of Fortune (http://www.learntarot.com/maj10.htm)

The Wheel of Fortune also represents unexpected encounters and twists of fate. You can't predict surprises; you can only be aware when one is circling around. Indeed, Card 10 often suggests wheel-like actions - changes in direction, repeating cycles and rapid movement. When the energy of the Wheel arrives, you will feel life speed up. You are caught in a cyclone that may deposit you anywhere. "Round and round and round she goes, and where she stops, nobody knows.

Jezebel: Death (http://www.learntarot.com/maj13.htm)

In readings, Death often represents an important ending that will initiate great change. It signals the end of an era; a moment when a door is closing. At such times, there may be sadness and reluctance, but also relief and a sense of completion. Death also suggests getting down to basics. Dying has a way of making you concentrate on what's important. This card reminds you to cut out the unnecessary. Death can also mean you will experience an inexorable force. Death is inevitable, and sometimes there are events that are inescapable as well. When these moments occur, the best approach is to ride your fate and see where it takes you.

Eames: Wheel of Fortune (http://www.learntarot.com/maj10.htm)
