Tarot Playlist

[featherynscale]

Today, my how-to of the day (courtesy of Google) is How to use your iPod as a tarot deck. I haven't got an iPod, of course, but the concept is entertaining enough to me that I want to play with it.

The core of the exercise is this: Assign a song to each card in a 78-card tarot deck (the original poster is using a Rider-Waite style, but one imagines that the Thoth and its descendents would work just as well). The original poster's playlist is here.

I'll probably drop my complete list in a post in a few days. For now, there are some possibilities floating about in my brain. If you were to compile such a list, what might be on it?

EDIT: Also, [attention whore] Love me! [/whore]

Something to work on during Silent Sustained Reading the rest of the week! Praise be!

Glad to be of service. Also, glad to hear you're less full of doom today.

Much less doom, thanks. About damn time.

And you know, maybe I'll do ogham. Just to be contrary.

Very clever, you are.

That would go quicker, anyway. I can't recall off the top of my head how many ogham letters there are, but it's certainly less than 78.

Depends on the system, really. I use 29 total, five aicme + four extra. Saff doesn't have those four, but adds three others. It's just that I know the system better, for one thing. Coming up with a song for, say, the 7 of Cups would be like, er, um. Yeah.

I'm thinking it would be fun to burn them to a CD and put it on random sometime. In the car or something.
