This card tells me I will either meet or get news news from someone today who has the same characteristics as this card.

Card 2 Surprise: Three of Skulls

A commercial transaction?  That wouldn’t be a surprise since I’m supposed to buy a deck today.  Work?  Who wants ro work on a sunday?

Card 3 Advice: Six of Grails

This card tells me I should enjoy my day to the fullest or that I should be careful that my “pleasures” don’t hurt my budget.

Card 1 Today: Water

Today will be an emotional day for me, not necessarely a good one.

I was sick the last two days so I did not touch my cards at all, especially wednesday when I was worried I’d vomit on them.  So I’m using again my Tarot of Vampyres and my Madame Endora’s Fortune Cards.  Here are the results:

Card 1 Today: Wheel of Fortune & Ten of Knives

10200swords10200

When I took my card I realized there was another card right under it so that makes two cards for today.  So I’m guessing with the Ten of Knives there will be an unfortunate turn of event today.  No idea so far about what it could be so I’m guessing I should be careful.

Card 2 Surprise: Ace of Grails

Love, friendship, warm moment with loved ones, maybe I’ll fall in love with another deck,

Card 3 Advice: Queen of Skulls

The card tells me I should be grounded today, to base my projects on firm foundations, to use my practical skills at their fullest.  There is a wolf on that card as well as Wolf, maybe it doubles the message about being careful today.

Card 1 Today: Wolf

The Wolf tells me I should check my back and be careful about everything today.  I should listen to my intuition.

Ah ha!

You know how at times things jump at you and you wonder how come you didn’t think about it sooner?  It’s about the daily reading I did yesterday.  My periods started yesterday in the evening and as usual they brought with them painful cramps, nausea and back pain.  And since I got my back problems some years ago, the back pain is worse.  While I was turning in bed this morning, in pain and trying to sleep, it hit me.

I was rethinking about my daily reading of course, how while it started good it wasn’t so much a Nine of Grails day after all.  Then the image of the card popped up in my head.  I cannot help but think that the woman on the card is pregnant because of her belly so I usually try to keep this low since as a vampire she cannot have childen, but this card the card was right, it was all about the womb:

And remember the advice card?  I had to go to do the groceries yesterday and do my monthly purchases as well but I was tempted to postpone this to the next day (today), but the advice card was telling me not to procrastinate and to do wat I have to do.  Good thing I listened to the card and did my stuff early morning and afternoon yesterday because today I’m in no shape to go anywhere at all.  Same for probably the next few days.

This is so cool! Pouce levé

At the same time not cool at all! MaladeTriste

I did my daily reading earlier using my new Tarot of Vampyres and my Madame Eudora’s Fortune Cards. Here are the results:

Card 1 Today: Nine of Grails

So I’m guessing today will be a good day where I will be happy and fulfilled emotionally. I will have good moments and I should enjoy them to the fullest.

Card 2 Surprise: Fool

Photobucket

There will something new today, a new experience or a new person I’ll meet. Maybe I’ll be given an opportunity and I should embrace it.

Card 3 Advice: Six of Knives

Photobucket

Maybe this warns me to be careful during a trip today (I’m doing my groceries today) or that I shouldn’t skip out on it even though I’m tempted to do it tomorrow instead. I also think the card could be telling me I have work to do at home I should do and I should stop procrastinating about it (chores).

Card 1 Today: Earth

Photobucket

My good organization skills will give me good results today. It’s true I’m good at these things, I can blame my rising sign Virgo. Or maybe it reminds me again I should do these chores.

My new deck

Posted on by Strange Realms

I acquired last month a beautiful tarot deck called Tarot of Vampyres. The art is really beautiful, romantic, filled with details, and the elegant and passionate vampires remind me of the vampires from Anne Rice. I wanted to start the study group but with small cards and so so scans I found on the internet, I caved in and scanned the deck myself. Now with bigger scans where I can see much better those details, I can finally study the deck. So I shall post my musing here.

Tarot of Vampyres I The Magician

Posted on by Strange Realms

Here is what I wrote for the Magician:

Photobucket

The Magician has golden tattoos on his arms and shoulders representing the golden solar energy that he is (Will). There is a red halo behind his head and I have no idea what it is, an aura of his energy? Another interesting element is the box that is under the skull, it is closed with a lock and you need a key to open it. What does the Magician hides there? Our hidden potentials? I’m guessing he is the only one who can open it.

I did my daily reading earlier using my new Tarot of Vampyres and my old Madame Eudora’s Fortune Cards. Here are the results:

Card 1 Today: Eight of Skulls

Photobucket

It tells me today is a day of learning, a day of practical matters (planning?) where I will have to be careful and check every angle. I won’t see the immediate advantages about these actions but they will benefit me in the long term.

Card 2 Surprise: Two of Knives

Photobucket

This card tells me there will tensions today, or there has been tensions, but that peace and reconciliation will surprisingly happen today.

Card 3 Advice: Four of Knives

Photobucket

This card tells me I should be careful about my behavior and try to be peaceful and not be aggressive, and listen to what others have to say. I have to admit I tend to be aggressive, stubborn and blunt so the card says to keep these in check today.

Card 1 Today: The Spider

Photobucket

The Spider confirms the Eight of Skulls about being meticulous and patient.

This is the second daily reading I’ve done with my Tarot of Vampyre and I like it very much.   Considering I’ve used my beloved Liber T Tarot of Stars Eternal for so long, I’m not too lost with the Thoth-inspired Tarot of Vampyre.
