You left it in the past because you felt you had no other choice. You knew what you were leaving behind. You knew the obstacles that would be facing you. But you continued. And now here you are, seemingly with nothing and feeling forced to accept a fool’s bargain. Except you are no fool, and your penchant for seeing opportunities where others see failure is about to pay off. Be quiet about your advantage, and let everyone else overplay their hand. When the time comes, complete your obligation to yourself by picking up the tokens they have discarded.


The Universal Waite is Mary Hanson-Roberts’s recolored rendition of the Waite-Smith deck. Nearly identical lining is softened by gentle coloring. Some faces have been reworked to be more pleasing to the eye. The Universal Waite Tarot is ©US Games Systems, Inc.
