Before I delve into the final installment of this week-long saga, I wanted to mention a remarkable bit of corroboration I received about the forecast for a "Tower" event on September 29th. As I usually do at lunar phase changes, I went back and examined the Lunar Month Look-ahead reading I did on September 23rd … Continue reading “Weekly Blueprint” Pull for Sunday

Liber T and Navigators of the Mystic SEA: A Deck Comparison
By way of offering an example reading for my "Friend or Foe" two-deck comparison layout, I decided to run the spread on the Liber T, Tarot of Stars Eternal and Navigators of the Mystic SEA decks. I've had both decks for a while and have used them together before. Both are Thoth clones, and I … Continue reading Liber T and Navigators of the Mystic SEA: A Deck Comparison
The “Friend or Foe” Two-Deck Comparison Spread
We're all familiar with the "new deck interview" technique, in which questions are put to a newly-acquired deck by running it through a special spread created for that purpose. The idea is to determine how effective the deck will be to read with. But I have never seen a spread designed to compare the degree … Continue reading The “Friend or Foe” Two-Deck Comparison Spread
“Weekly Blueprint” Pull for Saturday
The "action" card for today is the Universe reversed. All images copyright U.S. Games Systems, Inc, Stamford, CT and M.M. Meleen The first thing that crossed my mind on seeing this card was "unfinished business" related to the Tower I pulled yesterday. The second thing was the old chestnut "waiting for the other show to … Continue reading “Weekly Blueprint” Pull for Saturday
“Weekly Blueprint” Pull for Friday
The "action" card for today is the 4 of Swords. I've been anticipating this pull all week (although dreading is probably more accurate). All images copyright U.S. Games Systems, Inc, Stamford, CT and M.M. Meleen At first glance, the most striking thing about the pairing of this card and the Thoth Tower as "background" influence … Continue reading “Weekly Blueprint” Pull for Friday
“Weekly Blueprint” Pull for Thursday
The "action" card for today is the Ace of Wands. As long as I don't fall prey to over-thinking and over-compensating (symbolized by the reversed Art as "background" card), this has the potential to be a lively, on-point day. All images copyright U.S. Games Systems, Inc, Stamford, CT and M.M. Meleen Art (more commonly known … Continue reading “Weekly Blueprint” Pull for Thursday
Experimental Daily Draw #2
As I continue coming up to speed with playing-card divination, I performed another expanded 3-phase daily draw using the Voyager Tarot, Caitlin Keegan's Illuminated Tarot enhanced playing cards and the Messenger Oracle. Note that the Voyager departs from the common keyword nomenclature in use today, and also in much of its interpretive content. The left-hand … Continue reading Experimental Daily Draw #2
Tarot and Dice
For a while now, I've been combining dice rolls with my tarot spreads as a way to obtain a second opinion on the outcome, especially when the question is of the yes-or-no type. (Here is my most recent effort: https://parsifalswheeldivination.wordpress.com/2017/08/20/the-double-whammy-yes-or-no-spread/.) I thought I was onto something until I read the very first page of the … Continue reading Tarot and Dice
“Weekly Blueprint” Pull for Wednesday
All images copyright U.S. Games Systems, Inc, Stamford, CT and M.M. Meleen The "action" card for today is Lust. As I mentioned earlier, the Queen of Disks as "background" card is a mystery to me in human terms, and today's pull only deepens that mystery. So I decided to derive a "quintessence" card from the … Continue reading “Weekly Blueprint” Pull for Wednesday
“Weekly Blueprint” Pull for Tuesday
Here is Tuesday's pairing of background "tone" and foreground "action" cards. I realized this morning that, to be strictly correct, I need to use two decks in this exercise, so all possible combinations are available for each day. There is no logical reason why the Tower can't appear in both the background and the foreground … Continue reading “Weekly Blueprint” Pull for Tuesday
