THE SHUFFLE
Shuffle across the board
The texts here are based on short contemplations with the cards, daily draws, and other reflections.
Here you can also find examples of more cards than the standard Marseille Tarot, the Lenormand Oracle, and playing cards.
Enjoy some of my favorite Italian and French art tarots, the sudden insight, and the occasional maxim or haiku poem prompted by the cards.
