While your ability to discard that which does not (immediately) matter to you has been good for helping you keep your focus in your work, it has been bad in that discarding possibilities has prevented you from considering if you are making progress in a healthy way, or if you are making progress for the sake of making progress. Taking a stop to consider your actions and the consequences of your actions is not a bad thing, even though doing so will lead to the undoing of most of your current progress. It will prepare you to take a fresh look at what you are doing and what you think you want to accomplish. Reevaluating your goals is not the same as giving up, it is a healthy and mature action to take that will lead you to a better ending.


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.

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.
