Description
Here’s Rarity as Magician. I know, some of you will likely ask why Twilight/Sunset Shimmer/Starlight Glimmer isn’t in this card, so here are my reasoning why: While Twilight and Sunset could both fit into the traits that this card represent, I wanted something less… on the nose.
Twilight and Sunset are both magical prodigies, and Magician is more about a symbolic middle between the spiritual and materialistic, being part of both worlds and I consider both Twilight and Sunset to be too pragmatic for that. Likewise, while looking more to Rarity’s inspiration-driven personality and creativity, I feel that she does embody this card in a less literal sense. Starlight’s journey to discover her morals and the thin line of what is and isn’t okay to do made her a good embodiment of justice, as someone who in show has been shown to go through that journey, and both upright and reverse meaning applies to her character arc.
Upright: Manifestation, resourcefulness, power, inspired action
Reversed: Manipulation, poor planning, untapped talents

So it WAS a JoJo reference!
I chose red for a reason, Advol/Abdul’s coat is one of those reasons. :P I was very tempted to add vines to hermit…
YES, I AM!
They did the same to her.
Remember the walk of shame?

That’s just in my favorite pony’s defense.
I’ll go now.
In Rarity’s case, she is prone to some panic-induced bad decisions when put into a corner (using her friends as what could probably have called a sweatshop in the episode with Suri Polomare, comes into mind). Of course, one is hard-pressed to find 100% accurate matches, so sometimes I do have to see who feels both an interesting choice and most fitting at the same time. With Rarity, I took that the spiritual is more the realm of creativity that is the unknown force that is mediated by the Magician, rather than something more traditionally spiritual like gods and such.
