What Does The Deck Say? November 20, 2024

Baraja Azteca: 12 Oros, 5 Espadas, & 4 Bastos.

Today’s cards: 12 Oros, 5 Espadas, & 4 Bastos.

If you’re going to get what you want, you have to stop half-assing your work and commit. You may even have to work on several different processes at the same time because what you want to happen will involve several different disciplines and milestones. And that’s okay. You’re not going to make it happen today. So instead, sit down and plan this out with the same level of dedication as you would give to make your friends happy. Because making yourself happy would make your friends happy, and if that’s the mental gymnastics necessary to keep you focused, then your friends are going to be the happiest friends in the world.


A Baraja Española deck, the Baraja Azteca is a 48 card deck of playing cards used for such games as Brisca, Tute, and Mus. This 48-card variant of the deck contains four suits; Oros (Coins), Bastos (Clubs), Espadas (Swords), and Copas (Cups). While the deck is made primarily for play, it functions well as a divination tool. Each reader uses their own personal understanding and intuition to interpret the cards.

What Does The Deck Say” is a weekday series of 3 card pulls from a cartomancy deck. No context or query is given to frame what the cards say as the posts are reading samples and not personal instruction. The result is sometimes humorous, sometimes serious, and usually surprising. All readers are invited to leave a comment about what they perceive in the random spread as each person will interact with the cards in their own way.

Personalized, direct, and private cartomancy readings are available via Ko-Fi: Noxporium.
