Going above and beyond is your duty, you said. Doing whatever it took to get the job done was your right, you said. Stepping into your own will mean depriving someone of the opportunity to take what you have claimed, why worry about someone else’s hurt feelings, you said. Until it was your feelings that got hurt and your opportunity that was handed to someone else. Before you start writing ninety-nine reasons why it’s not fair, take a long sit down and consider which of your actions brought you to this point. They played the game by the rules that you had written. It is too late now to change them to something fair. Accept the loss you have written for yourself, resolve to do better, and then do better.

“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.
