01:12 am - The Hierophant: Art: Snape: PG: A Manner Of Devotion
LJ-SEC: (ORIGINALLY POSTED BY [info]isildurs_babe)

Title:  A Manner Of Devotion
Artist:  Isi,

[info]isildurs_babe
Type:  Art
Image Information:  Medium for original art is coloured pencil.  PSP7 used for additional graphics/text on the card.  Jpeg. 469x781.
Main character:  Snape (Lupin, Harry)
Card:  5,  The Hierophant
Card Interpretation:
Waite
"He symbolizes all things that are righteous and sacred." … "At his feet two acolytes kneel, but do they kneel
to him or to the higher power he represents?"
Vertigo
--"Captivity, empty ritual, a desire to control others or being in a position in which you have allowed yourself to be controlled by others."
My Own
Manifestation of the spiritual on Earth, The Hierophant deals with worldly problems, the Guardian Angel.  He is devoted to his superiors and he symbolises education and the teaching of divine wisdom. Though intelligent, focussed and striving for harmony, he can be stubborn and narrow-minded in his undertakings.
Rating:  PG
Disclaimer:  I do not own these characters, though it would be nice... especially Snape and Lupin ;)
Warnings:  Scene of destruction, minor injury, religious overtones. 
Notes:  It's 1 hour 35 mniutes into the 22nd Feb here.  Thanks to Dai for the great art betas, “woman, ‘is heed is bloody massive!” and "That one"

07:18 pm - The Hierophant: Fic: Snape/Lucius/Voldemort: NC-17
LJ-SEC: (ORIGINALLY POSTED BY [info]synn)

Title: The Hierophant
Author: ThreeSidedOrchid (Lj: [info]synn)
Type: Fiction
Length: approx. 2877
Main Character or Pairing: Snape/Lucius/Voldemort
Card: The Hierophant
Card Interpretation: "At his feet two acolytes kneel, but do they kneel
to him or to the higher power he represents? (SN)
- "Captivity, empty ritual, a desire to control others or being in a position in which you have allowed yourself to be controlled by others." (V)
- “Search for truth, points the way to salvation, also any institution that exerts that kind of mind control over its followers [...] Search for truth, understanding inspiration (right) [...] Conservatism, over-conformity, servitude, need to be socially approved and accepted (reversed)” -- (Tarot for Beginners, p. Scott Hollander)
See author notes for further details.
Rating: NC-17
Disclaimer: I don’t own them, I’m just playing.
Warnings: Threesome.
Summary: Young Snape is setting out on the path of his life.
Author Notes: Not the story I planned; I should learn not to plot out lengthy stories, because they frighten my muses away. The line “A true master does not always fulfill the disciples’ wishes” is taken directly from Tarot: Mirror of the Soul by Gerd Ziegler (referencing the hierophant, ‘course).
On the interpretations used: I read a variety of interpretations, and used those elements that seemed universal to the hierophant. This breaks down into two concepts: 1) the religious leader/conformity to social norms, most of those interpretations quoted above. 2) The concept of the disciple finding her path -- identifying truth, finding inspiration. Consequently, there are two hierophants in the fic. (which should be clear in reading it. I hope.)
Many, Many thanks to [info]bironic for beta reading on short notice, any remaining mistakes are entirely my fault.
Concrit always welcome
Hope you enjoy!

( The Hierophant )
