Card of the Day: 5 of Wands

5 of Wands, Thoth

Today I struggle with confused thinking, but I hadn't thought of it as strife, as is described here for the 5 of Wands.

Card of the Day: Prince (Knight) of Swords

Today I pulled the Thoth "Prince of Swords."  This image is part of the Elfworld and Laura J. Bayless's creative card.  It is a strong image.

Both of these cards fell out today.

Card of the Day: 2 of Wands

I always find Bunning comprehensive in her detailed overview of the tarot cards.

Card of the Day: 8 of Cups

Victorian Romantic Tarot

I am exhausted today, and probably coming down with something, and not surprisingly I pulled the 8 of Cups.

And I am so sorry I never managed to buy this beautiful deck that won several prizes when it first came out.

Card of the Day: Lovers VI

Lovers , Dana Driscoll's Tarot of Trees

Card of the Day: Strength, VIII

Major arcana, RW

I switched to the Rider deck today, a deck I rarely use.

Card of the Day: Art (Temperance) XIV

Art (Temperance) XIV (Thoth Tarot)

 It is, however, Angel Paths that addresses the Thoth deck specifically.

Knight of Swords, Thoth Tarot

Angel Path is one of the few on line sites that use the Thoth deck and also has insightful interpretations.

Card of the Day: 7 of Wands

7 of Wands (Valor) Thoth Tarot

6 of Cups

Thoth Tarot, 6 of Cups

Card of the Day: 3 of Disks

Today I decided to use the Thoth Tarot, one of my favourites, and much neglected.

3 of Disks, Thoth
