Well, well, well, this juggler seems to have let his pentacles get away from him, hasn't he? The delightful Tarot Nova shows what happens if you let your attention wander while juggling. Or could he have been expecting the pentacles to be coming from the other direction? These seem to have come out of left field and thrown him for a loop.
The International Icon is my current favorite deck. Here our juggler is literally floating in the air. Have we caught him in the act of jumping, is he levitating, or did he just trip? The sea behind him is choppy and the boats are at an angle, perhaps there was an earthquake and things are in the process of settling down. Whatever the reason, this is not a stable position. Yet the juggler seems at peace and confident.Notice the loop connecting the two pentacles, these tasks are connected and happening simultaneously. I don't get the feeling of decision making that I get from other 2 of pentacles. This is the ultimate multitasker.
