Each suit in the Bag of Bones playing card deck tells a visual story progressing from Ace to Ten. A heartwarming lamia, a persistent gardener, a spider’s catch, and a clumsy walker make for quick stories. The court cards stand alone, but have tales for themselves. For those wishing something more pleasant, Artiphany also has decks featuring dogs, kittens, and mermaids.

Today’s cards: 4 of Clubs, 5 of Diamonds, & 9 of Hearts.

It is hard work to change your life, but it is doable, one day at a time. It will not feel like you are making drastic changes as your preparations appear to only highlight why you need the change in the first place. But sown seeds do their work mostly unseen, and so it is with you. Still need a distraction? Go enjoy yourself. Spend some time with people who care about you and let the laughter hide the ticking of the clock. You’ll be back at work preparing for your harvest soon enough.
