The presence of FIVE

[R. Sale]

Nothing like a serious, manuscript-based topic to get a good conversation going. It's probably something the tarot researchers figure goes without saying, but I found it interesting. As it turns out, card number 'V' in the Major Arcana happens to be called 'The Hierophant' and frequently is also called 'The Pope'. Some illustrations have a pair of keys in silver and gold, etc. Good thing there's no 'pape' to be found in the VMs.

Let's try to keep it quiet. Don't want to encourage any more rampant speculation based on standard and traditional interpretations of medieval information.
