Today’s cards: Papa Coin, Seven of Staffs, & Lil’ Gourd.

This is the time to step up and be strong, but in accordance with the limits of your ability. You won’t be able to do all the things that you see other people doing, but other people may not be able to do the things that you can do best. Accepting this limitation is going to bruise your ego. Accept it anyway. Forcing yourself to live up to someone else’s expectation is going to fracture your ability to do anything else for yourself. This is not the time to abdicate to wild wishes. This is the time to remain true to yourself.

“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.
