Hi all, 

This was just uploaded. Btw, the texts in portuguese are "cool", as
something that increases the "strangeness" factor, or should i just
write them in English and Spanish (for the respective versions)?

I was thinking about it, since this last card eventually needs a
explanation, as many of the cards i done, and usually give it on the
text. 

The text is something like that: 

"At the Tarot,the Star represents the hope, 
an act of generosity, serenity. 
The Martyr, can be seen as a radical version of the Star.
The hope comes, but not whithout sacrifice, and the generosity coudn´t 
be grander, because this archetype sacrifices everything in name of his 
ideals, his values. There is no jars pouring water to represent this
star, 
just the red of the blood, that she gives, smilling."

The idea is that she is happy, but death sorrounds her.

"Un promenade
Et l'univers c'est moi
Apres, une cascade
Et son eau
C'est toujours toi 
 
Un escapade,
La vie est dans les bois
Et puis une balade
Son sujet c'est toujours toi
 
Un promenade
Et l'univers c'est moi
Apres, une cascade
Et son eau
C'est toujours toi"

"It's been one week since you looked at me
Dropped your arms to your sides
and said "I'm sorry"
Five days since I laughed at you and said 
"You just did just what I thought you were gonna do"
Three days since the living room
We realized we're both to blame,
but what could we do?
Yesterday you just smiled at me
Cause it'll still be two days till we say we're sorry"

"All I can say is that my life is pretty plain
I like watchin' the puddles gather rain
And all I can do is just pour some tea for two
and speak my point of view
But it's not sane, It's not sane"
- Blind Melon : No Rain
 
"Mais um ano que se passa,
mais um ano sem você
Já não tenho a mesma idade,
Envelheço na cidade
Essa vida é jogo rápido
Para mim ou prá você
Mais um ano que se passa
 
E eu não sei o que fazer!"
- Ira! : Envelheço na Cidade
