Welcome back @Rachelcat!

Hi! A day late and a dollar short again! Good to see you! This week will be Tarot Affirmations, Viki Lester, Theresa Reed. (I’m assuming Viki Lester is the artist, and Theresa Reed, The Tarot Lady, is the author.) This is a newish Lo Scarabeo deck I just got from a Llewellyn preorder. The short affirmations are on the cards, which I think is cool, and I like the simplified art and black backgrounds. It’s not Affirmations Tarot, which was a US Games deck of large landscape cards with RWS illustrations on the right and several affirmations as bullet points on the left. I forget who the author of the affirmations was. I had that one back in the day but it fell out of my collection in my RWS (and long affirmations) purge. Let’s see what I can do with this one! What is your most important characteristic? Page Wands, I achieve my dreams. (The border symbol for wands is a leaf. The others are their suit symbols, pentacle, short sword, cup.) It can help me learn all about affirmations and act on them. Perhaps to achieve my dreams? What is your strength? King Pentacles, I can create the life I want. The deck can encourage me to take charge of my life. Your weakness? IX Pentacles, I am surrounded by abundance. It’s not always action-oriented. What can you teach me? Ace Swords, There is clarity to be found. Doesn’t follow the “I” statement rule for an affirmation. Could be “I find clarity.” But maybe the passive is for aces? I can learn that the deck’s straightforward ideas are helpful? How can I learn it? II Wands, Now is the time to make a change. Also not an I statement. Maybe “I am making a change”? I can go from 2 to 1: Make a change to find clarity. What will be the outcome of our work together? Page Pentacles, I manifest success. Starting and ending with a page. Success isn’t the same as dreams. Or is it? Manifest is definitely more pentacles. I might not achieve all my dreams, but the deck will help me manifest whatever success I’m looking for. No majors. (The border symbol for majors is a 10-pointed asterisk.) So the deck won’t be earth-shattering for me. But I’ll like it anyway? We’ll see!
