Friday: The Gypsy Witch Fortune Telling Cards On... President Joe Biden!

Friday 12th April 2024

Today, we’re going to do as I promised, and take a look at a proper “near and far” reading with the Lenormand-derived “Gypsy Witch” Fortune Telling Playing Cards.

You can check out my comparison of these with the very similar Lenormand cards, which includes details of the meaning of each of the 52 cards in this popular turn of the century American deck here:

Now, given they’re a US deck, first published in 1903, I thought we’d take as their first outing, a look at current US President Joe Biden as our male significator, and see what these cards say is going on and coming up for him at the moment.

The layout is one you’ll have seen me use here before, and I usually call it “An Expanded 9-Card spread.” But in fact, it’s the “short” reading from the Gypsy Witch deck’s LWB, and is actually designed to utilise the specific “near and far” meanings included in the cards.

So! I asked about what’s going on and coming up for Joe right now, and this is how they fell:

The Cards (from top left)

Fox, Storks, Flames; Rod, Children, Shepherd; Money Safe, Scythe, Gentleman, Dog, Birds; Anchor, Mountain, Wine; Clouds, House, Moon

So how would we interpret this, incorporating the Near and Far meanings? Take a look below and see!
