When it’s over, you can assess what remains and what you have to rebuild. When it’s over, you can begin again and take your time recovering and recreating yourself into what you always wanted to be. When it’s over, you can surprise yourself when you see how much of you came through and how much that was cut away was grafted by someone else. When it’s over, you will be glad you came through. But first, you have to wait for it to be over, and that will be the hardest part. Hang on.


The Fey Tarot is the work of Mara Aghem. While the card names mostly track conventional tarot naming, the scenes differ from Pamela Coleman Smith’s renditions. Not all minors display the full pip count of their number. Rather, the scenes are meant to evoke the intuition of the reader rather than depend on long lists of regurgitated meanings. The Fey Tarot is ©Lo Scarabeo.

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.
