If it feels like it’s all too much right now, that’s because it is all too much right now. The burdens that have been assigned to you are other people’s problems, but for whatever reason they currently have your name on them. Take a seat today, and sort through the mess you have been dragging behind you. How many of those responsibilities are yours to take care of and how many are yours to take the blame for. They will say that you’re not being a good team player by abandoning what has never been yours to carry. They will say a lot of things. The only thing you should say in return is “good bye”.


This deck of 78 small tarot cards illustrated by Julie Paschkis and published by Running Press is part of a modest and portable set titled “Tarot: The Complete Kit”. The palm size cards feature vignettes that summarize individual card meanings yet also offer points for inspiration for other interpretations. The Running Press Tarot is ©Running Press.

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.
