Grawp?
Book: Where's the doctor? Not back yet?
Zoe: (beat) We don't make him hurry for the little stuff. He'll be along.
Book: He could hurry... a little.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Is there a Harry Potter Tarot yet?
A quick google indicates yes, but I haven't gone through the links.

I just did an edit and put maybe Luna or Trelawney there. i thought of McGonnigal (sp), but I think of HP as being about intuition and the unconscious, and McGonnigal doesn't do it for me.

Well, clearly McGonnigal is the Queen of Gryffindor - which would be which suit?
I see Ravenclaw as Swords. . . but the rest aren't so clear.

I was an editing monkey, sumi, this is what I put:
Slytherin - Swords, Gryffindor - Cups, Hufflepuff - Coins, Ravenclaw - Wands. (I'm not sure about Cups and Wands.)
I agree, Ravenclaw are the Intellectual house and swords are about mental energy. But swords also seem to be the most ambigious of the suits to me, there seems to be a lot more negative energy in them.

Hufflepuff as Cups, Ravenclaw as Swords. I like Gryffindor as Wands, but Slytherin as the Pentacles doesn't really fit...
