Well this is a fine mess that you’ve stepped into. If you act on instinct alone, you will wind the mess tighter around you and it will be harder to disentangle yourself. You have the ability to get out of this predicament, but it will involve standing still for five hot seconds to get a better view of the matter and to plan out your responses. It will be a plan constantly adjusting to shifting circumstances, but it is doable and you are capable of doing it as long as you don’t try to be a hero in the process.


The Dust II Onyx tarot deck is Courtney Alexander’s homage to her Black heritage and to the Black matriarchs and leaders of her communities. The deck is also a love offering to the LGBTQIA+ community and is presented as a tool for every person within the African diaspora to feel a connection to without prejudice.
