    Oh cool, my mom used to read my fortune with a deck she had and I always thought it was really neat, even though, like all fortune telling, it's extremely subjective. I guess I was always really attracted to the art and such.

    Can you do a card for me?

    I think as a sort of a narrative game, tarot is fun. If you wanted to give me a round two, CJ, I'd be down.

    The cards I pulled for past, present, and future.

    past

    III The Empress
    Planetary Trump of Venus
    The Daughter of the Mighty Ones
    Hebrew letter Daleth (door)

    present

    The Four of Swords - Truce
    (Jupiter in Libra)
    Oct 13 - Oct 22
    The Lord of Rest from Strife


    future

    I The Magus
    Planetary Trump of Mercury
    The Magus of Power
    Hebrew letter Beth (house)


    I read a trajectory from Love to Understanding. Your path through the love of god into his house is set and protected. All powers bend to your will in pursuit of the way. If you seek omens or knowledge you will not be denied or confounded. Your way is cleared through the righteousness of your quest. So long as you are willing to fight for what you want then you will never have to. Just as your success is guarded by your will your failure is guaranteed if you leave the path and it's protections.

    ...yer a wizard 'arry:P

    Interesting, thanks FP. I'd read that as past experiences with the opposite gender leading me to inexperienced doom in relationships, but that's just me. :P

    Queen of Wands (Inverted). Unpredictable and inconsistent, likely to be distrustful or see enemies where there are none; you may act rashly based on your virtues, of which you're all too aware.

    I wish I was pro, I could sure use the work/silver.

    The Knight of Wands (Upright). You act decisively, but without forethought to the consequences, which can cause great harm, if indirectly.

    this is a work of art

    The Five of Wands - Strife
    (Saturn in Leo)
    July 22 - Aug 1
    The Lord of Strife

    War or violent strife. Rashness, cruelty, violence, lust, desire. All of the threats to growth of the spirit.

    This can mean good things if you are a warrior or enjoy a good fight but usually it means challenging times are ahead of you.

    I wasn't sure if that was a request or not. (My avatar is a witch, so it's somewhat accurate.)


    The Knight of Cups (Inverted). A borderline sociopath, human interaction is of little value; you or someone close to you uses people as they see fit.

    Seven of Pentacles (Upright). A risk with minimal short-term gain, potential failure to achieve your goals.

    The Sword Arcana are almost all about conflict and/or destruction. Very few of them mean good things.

    conflict is a good thing!

    it builds character and creates interest

    plus everyone needs to be well-versed in it, or they become whiny babies

    np it happens all the time.

    III The Empress
    The Planetary Trump for Venus

    Represents the influences of Love and Beauty. Can also indicate the ability to rule through magnetic or attractive forces verses more dynamic actions. Emphasis is on influencing others instead of controlling them directly.

    True, but Ten of Swords means pretty much total destruction; everything held dear falls apart.

    And that's Upright.

    Cilla the card I pulled for you is

    The Prince of Cups (in the crowley deck there is a prince, princess, queen, and knight)
    Oct 13 - Nov 12
    The Prince of the Chariot of the Waters, Prince and Emperor of the Nymphs or Undines.
    Crest of the Eagle

    The traits this card signify are subtlety, secret violence, and craft. The prince is intensely secret, an artist in all ways, and is in fact perfectly ruthless.

    This card can be described well by the American, Nazi, and Roman empires. It symbolizes the apex predator of the air.

    It is also the representative of the powers of air in the element of water. The hurricane or storm at sea is one form of it.

    whats your birthday? I can tell you what cards represent your birthday but I can't do horoscopes (to much math for my dyslexia). Or I can draw a card for you and tell it's meaning and any intuitions I get from it for you.

    Drafting with the new set(s) seems like it would be like kicking a dude in the balls as hard as you can then he does likewise and so on for an hour.

    "My card turns all your guys into 1/1's"

    "oh yeah my guy makes me not lose"

    "No my card destroys all your guys"

    "Oh well good thing I have 1,000,000 life"

    Neat stuff! Not completely accurate, but with little truths here and there. These are vague enough that you'll have little truths for pretty much every living soul, but it's always fun to have this sort of thing done.
