Football inspired major arcana tarot cards ^—^
I had a lot of fun making these and tried my best to fit them with what the cards actually represented.
Explanation on who's what card if you are interested in knowing —
0 – The Fool –> This card represents on the upright- innocence, spontaneity, a free spirit. On reserved it represents‐ holding back, recklessness and risk-taking. All of which I think perfectly describes Jack.
I – The Magician –> On the upright represents- manifestation, resourcefulness, power, inspired action. On reversed- untapped talents. All of these remind me of Hakim and also his nickname is perfect fit for this 😉.
II - The High Priestess –> Basically a well knowledged motherly character who often works in silence. Who other that Luka.
III – The Empress –> A blonde beauty who is holding everything together.
IV – The Emperor –> Authority, establishment, structure, a father figure, dominance. He is Pedri and gavi's dad, enough sqid.
V – The Hierophant –> Spiritual wisdom, religious, freedom, someone who comforts. See Olivier comforting Kylian, and you'll see.
VI – The Lovers –> Love, harmony, relationship, Soulmate.
VII – The Chariot –> Control, willpower, action, success, determination, self-discipline. The soul of the Manchester City team.
VIII – Strength –> Strength, courage, influence, compassion, raw emotion, self-doubt. Strength of the Manchester United team.
IX – The Hermit –> Soul-searching, inner guidance, being alone, isolation. The guiding light of Arsenal.
X – Wheel of Fortune –> Good luck, Karma, destiny, a turning point, breaking cycles.
XI – Justice –> I don't know, Eriksen just fit the vibe.
XII – The Hanged Man –> Letting go, new perspective. Joao to Chelsea saga.
XIII – Death –> Ending, change, transformation, transition, personal transformation. Jude being Dortmund's captain and the transformation of power from older generation to the newer one.
XIV – Temperance –> Balance, patience, purpose, self-healing. These two are perfect balance of old and new in Argentina.
XV – The Devil –> Shadow self, restriction, attachments. He is holding himself a bit in my opinion.
XVI – The Tower –> Sudden change, chaos, revelations, awakening, personal transformation. The departure of Messi and the entire future of Barça being pushed into their hands in a way.
XVII - The Star –> Hope, faith, renewal, purpose, self-trust. He is the hope and future of Dortmund and Germany.
XVIII – The Moon –> I don't Mason just felt right.
XIX – The Sun –> Positivity, fun,warmth, success, inner child, overly optimistic, vitality. This card IS Haaland.
XX – Judgment –> The bringer of Judgment Day against anyone they played.
XIX – The World –> Completion, accomplishment, personal closure, delays. This card is Messi personified.

I just finished Bobby François’ chapter in the Society of the snow book and it was one of the chapters I was most curious about, as he is one of the most reserved survivors.
Bobby states many times during his chapter his reasons for that and they’re completely valid. I wanted to share below some portions of his story, as it is not often the center of the discussion when it comes to the survival in the Andes:
“It wouldn’t have mattered to me if they had had to let me die because, deep in my heart, I was expecting that eventuality. I predicted that the hour would arrive when this had to happen because there was no food left, and perhaps it would be necessary to choose somebody. And I was an obvious candidate because I never did anything to deserve their protection. But they never did that. And I believe that it never even entered their minds to do it. […] And when I mention this to my friends today they roar with laughter. ‘Don’t be ridiculous, Bobby,’ they say to me. ‘You’re crazy! You must be drinking too much.”
-
“It wasn’t that I didn’t want to do more, but that I could not. And not only did the group not cast me out, they never demanded more of me than what I could give. They took me into their hearts and gave me everything I needed.”
-
“Daniel Fernández, who cared for me like a father, always says something that surprises me. He tells me that I, with what I said and with my indifferent attitude, made that atmosphere of high tension, when everybody was on the edge of insanity, more bearable.”
-
“It’s evident that I suffered a deep depression in the Andes. […] I lost more and more interest in things; I had less will to live, to eat, to cover myself, to take care of myself.”
-
“Moreover I know, all too clearly, that I owe my life to the group from the Andes. But what moves me more than anything that has ever happened to me is that not a single one of them has ever collected on that debt. More and more I am coming to believe that they don’t even feel that I owe them anything.”
