Today’s cards: Queen of Wands, Knight of Coins, & Ace of Wands.

You think you have this all in the bag. That there is nothing or no one that you need to finish the job. If only everyone else would just leave you alone so you can do what you do best. Except today is the exception to the rule you like to enforce. They don’t have any skills to offer. They don’t have any influence you need. They don’t have any means of entertaining you while you wait for the paint to dry. But their presence means that you will have the ability to get what you need to finish the job without breaking yourself in the process again, should you humble yourself enough to ask for their help. Let them surprise you.


The Sweeney Tarot was designed to read with reversals. Having the expected 78 cards, one could use any system of meanings with it. However creator and artist Lee Bradford has put deep thought into the meanings of the Sweeney Tarot, making sure it is approachable by all and without occult or religious concerns that would restrict its audience or use.

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.
