Today’s cards: A green feather floats above a lit red candle against a blue background, a red key with green wings is in mid air against a blue background, and a yellow (right) hand stretches up into the field of view against a red background.
Hope will not always appear in a glorious and obvious form. Sometimes it is covered in muck and hidden under bruises. Sometimes, you can’t wait for hope to find you. Sometimes, you just have to keep going until hope catches up. Keep going.
The Motif Deck is a unique cartomancy system designed and painted by Lee Bradford where the images have no inherent meaning, and so it’s up to the reader to assign significance. The cards consist of seven objects interacting with each other: hand, candle, rose, feather, key, string, and cup. Each image consists of one or two of these items on a plain colored background. These images were designed to be meaningless – they are just objects. What gives them meaning is the combination of color, frequency, placement, and interpretation from the querent and the reader.

“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.
