Björk Lyrics as Tarot Cards

bjorkquotes:

0. The Fool

I don’t know my future

After this weekend

And I don’t want to

I. The Magician

I’m going hunting

I’m the hunter

II. The High Priestess

Fuck logic

Fuck logic

Bravo to instinct

III. The Empress

The pleasure is all mine

Women like us

We strengthen most

Host-like

IV. The Emperor

Stand up

You’ve got to manage

I won’t sympathize

Anymore

V. The Hierophant

Coincidence

Makes sense

Only with you

VI. The Lovers

I never thought I would compromise

Let’s unite, tonight

VII. The Chariot

I have guided my bones

Through some voltage

VIII. Justice

Your sense of justice

Murmurs underneath

How am I going to make it right?

IX. The Hermit

I live by the ocean

And during the night

I dive into it

Down to the bottom

X. Wheel of Fortune

Unthinkable surprises

About to happen

XI. Lust

This is sex without touching

I’m going to explore

I’m only into this to

Enjoy

XII. The Hanged Man

Then the body memory kicks in

I trust the unknown

Unfathomable imagination

Surrender to future

XIII. Death

I just have to

Explode

Explode this body

Off me

XIV. Art

The perfect match, you and me

I adapt, contagious

You open up, say welcome

XV. The Devil

Sue me, sue me, sue me

All you want

XVI. The Tower

My shield is gone

My protection is taken

I am one wound

XVII. The Star

I am fine tuning my soul

To the universal wavelength

No one is a lover alone

XVIII. The Moon

Isn’t it odd?

Isn’t it peculiar?

These statistics of my mind

XIX. The Sun

You can’t say no to hope

Can’t say no to happiness

XX. The Aeon

Loss of faith just ignites survivors

They stare doubt

Straight into the eye

I forgive, the past is bondage

XI. The Universe

Twist your head around

It’s all around you

All is full of love

All around you

Looking Through You

To understand how our organs and cells work, we need to see inside the body, spurring on the development of ever more sophisticated imaging techniques, from X-rays to MRI scans. Now, a new method enables scientists to look right through a dead mouse’s body, by making its tissues transparent. In essence, solvents are used to remove fats and pigments, while making the body rigid to preserve its internal organisation, and tiny antibodies, known as nanobodies, are injected into blood vessels to label cells of interest. Named vDISCO, this technique can reveal structures deep inside the body with extraordinary detail, such as the entire nervous system, shown above in green. In just one of many potential applications, vDISCO is helping researchers uncover how injuries to the brain or spinal cord might affect other parts of the nervous system, information which could ultimately lead to improved treatment for trauma patients.
