This Week: A Smart, Dark-Haired Man May Be Pushing His Luck & A Game Is Being Played: Watch Out For The Charm Offensive

Week commencing 11th September 2023

I thought I’d start experimenting this week with different layouts for the larger week upcoming post, so we can vary the decks a bit.

This layout is using the Sibylle des Salons and is an adaptation of one of the spreads suggested in the latest Grimaud 2022 edition, to look at the week ahead. In their version, which it calls "La Semaine Au Boudoir” (ooh la la) it only suggests one card per area, but I think it’s more fun, and you get more out of the layout, if you use 2-3 cards per section to tell more of a story. I’ve also included the card from the bottom of the deck at the centre.

I’ll cover this layout separately in a post this week (it can be used with any deck).

For Sibylle des Salons or Sibilla Indovina, you can check the card meanings here using the alphabetical index:

This week’s cards fell as follows:
