This idea even made it into the Mormon hymnal.<br /><br />https://hymnary.org/text/sons_of_michael_he_approaches_harrisonWm Jas Tychonievichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07446790072877463982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5953806385060168124.post-90907110474279840772022-08-08T09:50:10.984+08:002022-08-08T09:50:10.984+08:00Okay it was easy to find again.

It's a photo of the painting in a Church, but now I forget how I found that full version.<br /><br />While the door itself isn't green, it looks overgrown with greenery and Christ has a rather wizardly aspect. It really evokes a magical/mystical sense and is one of my favorites.Ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07815695560953002699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5953806385060168124.post-92161464820595951692022-08-08T08:08:19.387+08:002022-08-08T08:08:19.387+08:00So Gandalf is the Hermit, which is the 9th card. 9...So Gandalf is the Hermit, which is the 9th card. 9 like Mr Hawk.<br /><br />So maybe we can identify Gandalf with Michael.bennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5953806385060168124.post-50050477380056749132022-08-08T00:26:11.842+08:002022-08-08T00:26:11.842+08:00William,
