Today’s cards: Tower (19), Child (13), & Snake (7).

That sure is an awfully big ambitious project you got going there. Sure would be a shame if something were to happen to it because you were so sure that the project could not fail, that you did not take any exceptions into account, or took steps to protect the more vulnerable areas of the project, or took everyone’s word at face value and never wondered what would happen if someone absconded with your resources. Yup. Nice tall and big project that is one-hundred percent guaranteed to succeed. No need to make contingency plans if nothing could possibly happen. (Say, when is the last time you checked up on things, anyway. Today would be a good day to do just that, if for no other reason than to prove nothing is wrong.)


This 39 card deck by Caitlín Matthews and Virginia Lee includes two sets of Man and Woman cards, along with an extra Diviner card. The two sets of Man and Woman allows the reading to be tailored to the circumstances of the Querent. One pair is portrayed with light skin and the other pair is portrayed with dark skin. The unused cards are removed from the deck before shuffling. The Diviner (37) is not required for Lenormand reading. However, I include it with my throws as it makes an excellent “Stop Card” when first on the table and a “pay attention to what follows” card when appearing elsewhere.

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.
