It feels better to be back there, where you were in control and in charge of everything, where others came and went at your bidding. It certainly feels better to be back there instead of in all the scrambled uncertainty that you are in now. Not having a guide to lead you from where you started to where you want to be is making you feel like crawling into a cave and giving it all up. And that might not be a bad idea right now. Go have a sit and don’t think about your path for a while. Think about who you are, right now. How much have you changed already? How much are you willing to let go to keep going? How much will you surrender if you give up? Take a pause, be patient with yourself, and let the wounds you have only just now noticed begin to heal before you rush off again.


Tavaglione’s Stairs of Gold Tarot is a richly decorated esoteric book in the form of 78 tarot cards. Sometimes wildly diverging from Waite’s road, the deck can read as slim as necessary and as deep as the reader is willing to focus. Tavaglione’s Stairs of Gold Tarot is ©US Games Systems.

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.
