Narcissus: Vanity:

A woman stares at her own reflection, ignoring on-lookers. They want her attention, but she can't give it to them if she's fallen in love with her face. There's a Greek myth about Narcissus. In one version, everyone is in love with him, especially a girl named Echo. But Narcissus is so vain that he can't be bothered to notice her. So, Echo doesn't take care of herself and she becomes less than human. So she decides to get her revenge for what Narcissus has done to her. She calls on a goddess named Nemesis and Nemesis decides to make it so the next time Narcissus gazes upon his reflection, he cannot be pulled away. He ends up dying, and I think that he doesn't even mind.

This once again has to do with my birthday. I'm not being vain; I could care less about my appearance. It's my fear of getting older and living with regrets. That's all I can really say about that. I pretty much thought getting this card was cruel, but it was probably the only one in the deck that could show my feelings in this way.
