Flying or Falling?

This week I'll be using the Tabula Mundi Tarot (Nox et Lux edition) with its companion book Book M: Liber Mundi; both were self-published by M.M. Meleen. I'll pair with it the Alchemist's Oracle, a deck and booklet set self-published by Lauren Aletta. Today's draws are the Prince of Swords (Knight) and "High Flying:"

          Meleen describes this Prince as an "onrush of ideas and innovations," and suggests "the challenge is holding on to them." His ideas are personified in the form of fairies, who look like they have their own notions about what they want to do. (Having had days where concepts and plans bounce around inside my head, I can relate.) From an elemental standpoint, the Prince is Air of Air; with his remarkable intellect and knowledge, the sky is the limit. Yet air is ephemeral and provides nothing firm on which to grasp. He's going to have to land his Chariot of Winds on the ground if he wants to do something more concrete than talk.
          Aletta describes this card as being in the "creative zone." Being inspired with original designs and heady thoughts can feel similar to a drug-induced rush. There's excitement mixed with joy that overflows with enthusiasm. But a butterfly/moth has a short lifespan, much like my ideas. I may get so caught up in the feeling behind them, that I lose track of my purpose. Like Icarus who flew too close to the sun, I might suddenly find myself falling rather than flying.
