Today’s cards: Strength, 2 of Pentacles, & 9 of Swords.

You gave what you could, but it wasn’t enough. Don’t spend the day blaming yourself for what was out of your control and beyond your sight. You gave what you could, and to do anything more would broken you in ways that would be difficult to recover from. Stop blaming yourself for other people’s actions. Look at what you still have and what you are still capable of doing. Tomorrow, continue the process of recovery by taking action. Today, start that recovery by resting and forgiving yourself for what was never yours to begin with.


The Fey Tarot is the work of Mara Aghem. While the card names mostly track conventional tarot naming, the scenes differ from Pamela Coleman Smith’s renditions. Not all minors display the full pip count of their number. Rather, the scenes are meant to evoke the intuition of the reader rather than depend on long lists of regurgitated meanings. The Fey Tarot is ©Lo Scarabeo.

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.
