Okay, I changed it. I spent some time talking about it with David, who has a much greater knowledge of symbolism than I do (evident in his lyrics), and he gave me some suggestions, and we worked on it, and this is what I came up with. The silver ornament at the bottom right is a hamsa, a "Hand of God," which is affixed beside doors of houses for protection and good luck, with a palmprint overlayed . . . this seemed like a more subtle "fortune" symbol than the cookie, maybe. The bird is a nightingale; to hear the song of the nightingale in a dream fortells good health. The ship's wheel speaks to me of adventure and sailing off to another land to seek one's fortune; the palm trees are that far-off land with hoped-for prosperity and happiness. The kanji in the background is the Japanese symbol for "destiny."

I've had this one finished for awhile, but just wasn't sure about it. Is it too obvious? Wheel - Fortune. Wheel of Fortune. It seemed so natural to me; I had in mind what I wanted -- a ship's wheel -- and then when I thought of the fortune cookie, it seemed perfect. But then when I put it together, I wasn't sure. I guess I'll think about this one for awhile.
