This Week: Reconciliation After Fall-Out, A Breakup, Someone Coming Up Roses, But Watch For Wolves In Sheeps' Clothing
Week commencing Monday 14th August 2023
Once again, we’re starting the week off with a reading from the Russian Gypsy Fortune Telling deck by Svetlana Touchkoff.
This is a Russian “pasyan” (patience) deck of 25 cards, the images in which are based on the Lenormand, although it has additional images, 50 in all. In order for an image to ‘count’ it has to be matched into a whole by rotating the cards; no card can be moved out of its place. Each image can also be read in one of four ways, depending on the direction it is falling in.
The final card at the bottom right has its half-images read in their initial direction and then in position 1 to give an ‘overall’ picture. The cards are usually used for personal reasons, but I adapt the meanings for a more global/news context.
This week’s reading fell as follows. As you can see, two of the cards in the top two rows could be rotated, to give us the Clover and the Ring as well as the Branches and Scythe.
