Today’s cards: 9 Espadas, 4 Bastos, & 3 Copas.

You’re not going to see it coming, but now that it’s here be prepared for everything to change again. It will be some time before things settle back down again, so for now, sleep with your shoes on and keep your “Go” bag at the ready. Don’t let any single thing overwhelm you, but move with the flow and remember that all seasons come to an end, even the chaotic ones.

A Baraja Española deck, the Baraja Azteca is a 48 card deck of playing cards used for such games as Brisca, Tute, and Mus. This 48-card variant of the deck contains four suits; Oros (Coins), Bastos (Clubs), Espadas (Swords), and Copas (Cups). While the deck is made primarily for play, it functions well as a divination tool. Each reader uses their own personal understanding and intuition to interpret the cards.

“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.
