How this deck reads it

Two swords crossed before the chest strain in opposite directions yet do not leave the body. The sheen of the mother-of-pearl inlaid blades seems to stand in for the gaze hidden beneath the blindfold, and where judgment has halted only light remains and flows. The crescent moon above the dark sea is not yet full, pressing the stillness of deferred decision into the deep indigo of dancheong. The blindfold reads not as avoidance but as a mark of suspension holding balance.

Artwork

A woman blindfolded with cloth, wearing white long-sleeved robes, holds two swords crossed before her chest. Behind her are a crescent moon, the sea, and rocks.
