Today’s cards: Papa Coin, The Tower, & Six of Blades.

While you may be the one in charge, you are not the one in control of everything that you’re in charge of. So when the changes hit your sphere of influence, do what you can to keep the shaking from shattering everything, but be aware that not everything is going to come through with you. In the aftermath, take stock of what you are still in charge of, and take a good long sit to consider why. Your domain may be smaller but the responsibility will be greater.


The Dust II Onyx tarot deck is Courtney Alexander’s homage to her Black heritage and to the Black matriarchs and leaders of her communities. The deck is also a love offering to the LGBTQIA+ community and is presented as a tool for every person within the African diaspora to feel a connection to without prejudice.

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.
