May I ask what this is meant to be helping you with?

Sure. I'm planning to create a tarot deck with cards based on single verbs.
Some juicy ones there, thanks

Interesting! I'm curious what you'll decide to go with. Hope I prove helpful in some small way.
More words! But I'll probably leave it at this, because I easily get carried away with these things:
Gamble, insure; release, suppress; aspire, despair; yearn, acquiesce; surrender, persevere, submit; celebrate, censure, condemn; clarify, confuse.
Sorry, I can be prone to alliteration at times.

I am running it around in my mind. What I'd like to do is have a 'Major Arcana' of verbs that cover 'basic' or 'fundamental' actions that people or things take or make all the time.
Then the Minors will be a bit more specific or flavourful.
I thought I'd go for a standard 78 card deck. I'm thinking of doing something with word types other than verbs too.

Oh no not alliteration, disgusting habit
Some great words there, you're really tuned into the kind of thing I'm looking for.

I hope you'll let us know how it turns out. I know I said I was stopping, but you made me think that nouns could be good, no? Guilt, absolution; courage, cowardice; patience, impatience, haste; forbearance, indulgence; avidity (I love that word), apathy; joy, sorrow; solitude, friendship, connection; wisdom, naivete; humility, arrogance; gratitude, ingratitude.
Some more good ones for which I can claim no credit: View, Intention, Speech, Action, Livelihood, Effort, Mindfulness, Concentration.
What would be good pairs, though, I wonder? View: understanding, wisdom, ignorance, blindness? Intention: benevolence, compassion, consideration, malevolence, malice, enmity, disregard, thoughtlessness? I'll stop there because I've gotten way off track and this is probably not very helpful (not to mention that it's a discussion in itself). Just a thought.Moog wrote:

Always glad to be of assistance.
