Overconfidence

From the Sheridan-Douglas Tarot, the Knight of Batons; from the Pages of Shustah, the Swamp:

Confidence gets you off to a fast start. Confidence gets you that first job and maybe the next two promotions. But [over]confidence stops you from learning. 

~Bill Walsh

The Knight of Batons has charm, energy and a love of adventure. People enjoy his company and the fun he creates, though he doesn't stay in one place for very long. He gets itchy if he's not on the move. His confidence makes him fearless when he's exploring new places, but the Swamp card asks him to pause and tap into his intuition. The dark water of these lands hide alligators and roots that easily snag and arrest progress. As Neil Armstrong put it, "When you get overconfident, that's when something snaps up and bites you."
