Today’s cards: Nine of Knives, The Grandchildren – XVII, & Daughter of Knives.
It feels like you have no reason to keep going. Not when everything you have accumulated can be, and already was, taken from you and fouled in a unrecoverable way. It feels like you have no choice but to keep going. When even the means of taking matters into your own hands are overruled in favor of someone else’s goals. Very well then, if you have no choice but to keep going, go on your terms. What’s the worse that could happen? That you get what you want?
Tayannah Lee McQuilar’s Hoodoo Tarot celebrates the complex American Rootwork tradition by integrating esoteric and botanical knowledge from Hoodoo with the divination system of the tarot. Structured like a traditional tarot deck, each of the 78 cards features full-color paintings by magical-realist artist Katelan Foisy and elegantly interprets the classical tarot imagery through depiction of legendary rootworkers past and present as well as important Hoodoo symbolism. The Hoodoo Tarot is © Tayannah Lee McQuilar and Katelan Foisy.
“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.
