Today’s cards: Knight of Wands, Knight of Cups, & Ace of Disks.

It is going to take much more than bluster for you to get your way, today. It is going to take an honest acknowledgement that there is something that you can not take by force or manipulation, that there is someone you are going to have to humble yourself before and ask like everyone else that approaches them. This is going to burn your hide like nothing else. Tell your pride to sit in the corner with some ice. If you are going to accomplish your goals today, it will be one step at a time and with no bravado or trumpets to announce your progression.


Bryan Lahr’s Wyzard of Odd tarot deck is a work of art featuring carefully crafted images of literal smoke and mirrors. The deck is based on the Thoth and the margins are lined with correspondences from various esoteric practices. The slightly oversize deck works well for contemplation as the images fold onto themselves and unfolds upon the viewer. In following with the tradition set by the Thoth deck, Wyzard Princes are equivalent to Waite’s Knights, and Wyzard Knights are equivalent to Waite’s Kings.
