I'm trying to do regular card draws to explore some of the decks we have for sale. Each day, I'll draw a card from one our unique new decks or one of our pre-loved decks asking about how the day will go.

The new deck of the day is the Precious Possum Lenormand. Lenormand 36-card divination decks have a history going as far back as the 18th century. They work particularly well with questions relating to time and are generally read in pairs or groups.

Today's paired cards are "change" (showing a dead possum's spirit starting a new adventure), the subject of the reading, and "scythe" (showing a grim reaper possum behind yellow stalks if grain), the modifier of the subject.

The end of a chapter is the beginning of a new phase. Memories and values are carried on the path to a more integrated and honest self. Some caution is suggested, as there may be unexpected problems that come with severing ties. But making the right decisions will lead to the best path forward.

Today I'm pulling from the pre-loved Wisdom of the Hidden Realms Oracle Cards. These cards are a classic from metaphysical author Colette Baron-Reid, with beautiful illustrations and gilt edges.

Today's card is another volunteer - it offered itself by falling out of the deck rather than coming up through the normal shuffling process. While these can be put back in the deck, I feel they are a strong suggestion that should be reviewed.

The card today is The Spirit Whisperer: divine guidance, higher knowing. This card brings guidance and intuition, helping you know the right steps to take to move forward in fulfilling your inspired purpose.

The new deck of the day is the Positive Snark Affirmation Deck. It's an adorable deck with silver edges and a magnetic one-piece box. Affirmation cards are what they sound like, positive affirmations and advice to help you get through your day.

These cards are snarky and fun, while still offering real assistance and a positive boost. The card today is Freedom. I'll let the it speak for itself.

"I am free and I am capable of living my own fu***ng life. People cannot tell me what to do or how to do it unless they are paying my bills. If you're not paying my bills, and I'm feeling generous, I will listen to your opinion and then decide whether that advice applies to me or not. This is the best I can promise those outside of me who offer advice. But first and foremost I listen to myself and my experiences. This is a perfectly fine approach to dealing with others and their advice. I choose to live and bask in my freedom in the world."

Their goal is to make the world a better place for everyone and they're not afraid of thinking outside the box. They need to be careful of over-promising, but they're all about being the best pup they can!

However, I know that I am one of the most determined people that I know. I know that I will climb that wall brick by brick, hand hold after hand hold, and make it to the top of that wall and look across at the other side. I will use my determination daily to achieve the things that were put on this planet for me."

Today I'm pulling from the pre-loved Shadowscapes Tarot. This deck blends Asian-, Celtic-, and fantasy-themed artwork inspired by fairy tales, myths, and folklore from cultures around the world.

The card of the day is Death. While this may seem ominous, the Death card is about significant changes. It's time to leave behind the past and leave oneself open to the new. Sometimes this transition is difficult, but it will happen, and it's better to understand that it needs to.
