Mystique
Smiling, I read my tarot, It said, "Go with the flow," Asked the faucet, you know, Washing machine did overflow, "Your gifts are for the world! Positive vibes, old girl, I mopped the floor, okay, Go with the flow, this is today! ...

Premium Member The Turn of an Unfriendly Card
Turn of An Unfriendly Card (Tarot 3 of Swords) I cannot empathize with a shattered heart. That image of a fragile, breakable baby pink orb Is insulting to how I feel. The turn of an unfriendly card depicts three swords thrust into a still beating heart I feel the sliver blade of that first sword plunge hard, deep and succinctly. I gasp with the...

Sojourn through Tarotspace
SOJOURN THROUGH TAROTSPACE Let me tell you a story, Of a deck of cards, in all its glory. Well, some will say, what’s the big deal? To them my humble reply, come, conquer, and heal. The story is my take, On art, of an ancient age. Tarochhi as it first evolved. In Milan & Ferrara- getting masses involved. Adorned in Ivory, Silver & Gold, Painted...

Good Path
It’s 9 pm, and still no luck Two of wands, and still no plans, How to get to dreaming, To my start and to the ceiling, All these songs and kings will die, Before the World Tree turns its eye, Which amongst the athames’ll hit, Six, Seven or none? ‘Cause I’m already done… Nature take me to the Moon, And bless me to get in...

Tarot Fortune
Is she the modern Rapunzel And all of the misfortunes out there Are just one big evil entity? “I’m not going to hurt you”?is the typical horror film line That always pulls the main character Down to their demise All this vile and tears clogged up inside Sick of it Tired of it Hopefully the pieces come back together again Two clocks out of synchronization One...

Premium Member The Tarot Death Card
The soothsayer turned over the death card. The old guy who claimed he did not believe nearly died. Clutched his heart, began having palpitations. It does not mean a human death, she told him. It means the death of one concept, to give life to another. You mean like the death of a job, so I can have a better...

Premium Member She Is Not Merely a Soothsayer
She distributes the wands and the cups. Her client taps a card, choosing it. The death card comes up. The client gasps. She takes her hand and begins to explain. She has Bambi brown eyes, and a kind soul. The client settles down, wanting to believe in her explanation, in the cards, in a happily ever after. She is not merely a...

Premium Member Meeting Tarot Card Mama
I am known as Tarot Card Mama our Bohemian dressed hall advisor said. My roommate and I spoke of it later, thought she was daft in the head. By midweek we saw most of the laughter was coming from TCM’s room. We were invited to her tarot sessions, they were put out on a Zoom. Let’s do it, we...

Ninth
duskfall creature, tipsy on the blood of the covenant, tell me, when did you pull the ninth card? when your fangs grew in and your eyes grew tired, what made you build the castle walls? the sunlight burns, you protest, every silver-backed mirror a reminder to forget. close the books, put down your stakes, because the real world doesn’t work like that, creature of...

Everything Is Not Okay
The winds howling through the roof Booming down on the metal About to crash down in any minute now The wolf banging on the door Luring us to open it The black bloody hands Clawing through the cracks To our deaths I’ve been down, down, down The rain plummeting Down In my head and In my heart When alll of it seems to be going Against you The waves slapping...

Major Arcana
He’ll either choose you or her. we don’t know but we know. Obsession pennies, and hands drool for more. You give in to the oracles. Snow hands like those on The Lovers card. Can’t you see they might be your hands? Feeding your ears what you eagerly crave. When in love, your brain is your misguiding reader. It...
