How this deck reads it

While the white horse advances at an unhurried pace, the knight holds a golden cup high, depicting a course in which direction matters more than speed. The pearly armor and winged helmet hold in one body the duality of bearing the weight of reality while striving to rise toward the ideal. The moonlit river and massed clouds filling the background show that this journey is made not on daylight calculation but on the feeling of night. The luster of pearl flows along the armor's surface and illuminates at once the surface of charm and the will beneath it.
