The High Priestess - Trelawny
The Empress - Lily

The Hermit - Snape
Wheel of Fortune - Hagrid
Justice - Tonks
The Hanged Man - Neville
Death - Dementors
Temperance - Mrs. Weasley
The Devil - Voldemort
The Tower - Azkaban
The Star - Luna
The Moon - Lupin
The Sun - Hegwig
Judgment - Mad Eye Moody
The World - Hogwarts
I've got two words that are going to make all the pain go away. Miniature Golf.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

K said it's "a girl with a lion." Does anyone have a lion Patronus?
I'm guessing she chose Ginny because she had already used Hermione once.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Ginny's spells are also shown to be unusually strong.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I don't know from Tarot, but it is interesting to compare the choices between the first two links. I like the descriptions in the third link.

I liked that they showed that in the movie of OotP, and also showed Harry's very impressed reaction to her spells. A nice foreshadowing for the next film.

From those other decks I like the Sorting Hat for the wheel of fortune and the Patronus for Strength.

I like these too. I also like Fawkes as the Star. I think traditionally there is a peacock associated with the Star. I'll look in my tarot books later.

A peacock and a fox and a dog -- I think.
