Today’s cards: Queen of Diamonds, 2 of Hearts, & Ace of Clubs.

You want what you want, and what you want meets all of your sensual needs. The problem is, what you want is not available and you refuse (rightfully) to settle for anything less. This means you are going to be without satisfaction for a while. But instead of lamenting the drought of opportunities, take this time to sort through those wants and see if there are other ways to satisfy yourself, on your terms, to your satisfaction. And while you are examining yourself, don’t forget to perform self tests for cancer. The more you know yourself, the sooner you’ll recognize when to go for help.


Each suit in the Bag of Bones playing card deck tells a visual story progressing from Ace to Ten. A heartwarming lamia, a persistent gardener, a spider’s sturdy web, and an absentminded gentleman make for quick stories. The court cards stand alone, but have individual tales for themselves. For those wishing something more pleasant, Artiphany has more gentle decks featuring dogs and kittens. The Bag of Bones Playing Cards (1st Edition) are under exclusive copyright to ©Inky-Dinky 2008.

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.
