It’s hard to tell now if you can trust them. They have said some things that put your hair on edge, only to say some other things that soothes your fears. But with how things are swinging, it’s hard to tell which way they are facing. Stop trying to pick up what you think they are laying down and back off a bit. Anyone can say anything, but at the end of the day, how they behave will tell all that you need to know. How they are trying to present themselves to you will be an act, no matter how well-intended they may be at the time. How they behave towards others when they think you are not looking will be the biggest tell of what they really think about you. Pay attention when no one else is.


The Bosch Tarot is a series of collages based on the paintings of Hieronymus Bosch. Using a unique set of meanings that doesn’t always aligns with Waite, it will sometimes read direct, and sometimes read like a koan. It is a good deck for introspection and examination of internal motives. The Bosch Tarot is presented by Atanas A. Atanassov and ©Lo Scarabeo.
