Truthful Tarot

Hi Lovelies! It's November and time for your tarotscopes!! This month I used the Pirate Tarot authored by Carrie and Lucas Aodio with illustrations by Liz ‘Galindorf’ Harper.
If you are a pirate enthusiast, fan of woodcarvings or just like a deck that has that element of fun then the Pirate Tarot is for you! It was a blast to read these cards! The Major and Minor Arcana has been changed to reference pirate life with the High Priestess becoming the Figurehead, rather than royals there are now Captains, Lady Captains, First Mates and Cabin Boys. It is a wonderfully exciting deck to read, the art itself looks like real woodcuts, the intricate artwork will keep your eyes entertained for hours. Having gone through the deck multiple times in doing the Tarotscopes time and again I found bits in the picture I hadn’t noticed before! Its a playful deck that still keeps the mystical tradition of the tarot! Get the deck at Schifferbooks.com. Now let's get on to the Tarotscopes!!

The middle of November the Seven of Pistols stops by telling you that just because your right doesn’t mean you need to argue the point. It is great to have conviction, but in this instance it does not help the situation, agree to disagree! At the end of the month you move into the First Mate of Cups who gives you a helping hand in revamping your love life.
