Restlessness

From the Classic Tarot, the Page of Batons; from the Constellation Cards, Pictor:

I could not help it: the restlessness was in my nature; it agitated me to pain sometimes.

― Charlotte Brontë

This Page of Batons holds his staff as if he's rowing a boat. His curiosity has an energy to it that craves action. He's like a pot of water that starts on simmer but soon comes to a blistering boil, rattling the top on the pot. He desires to rid himself of this imaginative restlessness by channeling it into something, but whatever he begins doesn't hold his interest for long - mostly because he doesn't have the skill or knowledge to progress very far. Pictor is a constellation in the Southern Celestial Hemisphere. Its name is Latin for painter, and is an abbreviation of the older name Equuleus Pictoris (the "painter's easel"). The easel is made to support the work of the painter. In the same way, a mentor might give structure and support to this Page, recognizing his ability while offering him the skills to develop it.
