I hate playing against control decks

[–] Owl@hexbear.net 30 points 2 days ago (1 children)

One time in high school, someone tried to do one of these on me, accidentally drew four cards, and they were all swords. Then she went pale, made some excuse, and left.

It was pretty funny.

[–] RNAi@hexbear.net 15 points 2 days ago (1 children)

That means you badass or about to die?

[–] Owl@hexbear.net 7 points 2 days ago

All the swords cards are variants on "conflict in your future." I don't know the specific ones.

[–] SoyViking@hexbear.net 27 points 2 days ago (1 children)

You're going to be disloyal to your masters.

You're going to do something stupid and reckless.

It is going to pay out in the end though.

  • Source: I looked at the cards and these are the vibes I got.

I'm always disloyal to my masters so I'm glad to hear my typical buffoonery will lead me to wealth in the near future.

Almost nobody is being helpful (I would but I'm on the train and don't have my tarot book) but now I want a tarot comm where we can all help each other interpret our tarot readings

[–] Speaker@hexbear.net 4 points 1 day ago

This, please. I mostly use it for debugging code, at this point, but it would be a good creative outlet to do some community stuff.

[–] shreddingitlater@hexbear.net 22 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Ah, congratulations on the new baby or sorry that happened to your mom

[–] abc@hexbear.net 15 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I'd like a tarot reading for what's gonna happen on my next run

Also quick interpretation: You're gonna get some bad news related to a creative project, but with them a new opportunity will present itself. Seizing on this new opportunity will yield something materially good for you. The bad news could be something as simple as a writers' block and the new opportunity is simply you moving on to do something else, instead of hammering away at something you struggle with.

Yes, first you will be upside down and this will be very distressing, but then a carefree fellow will come along, get you right side up, and then leave you with a cookie.

[–] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 18 points 2 days ago (1 children)

At least it isn't ZA WARUDO. That is usually bad... or at least quite a struggle ahead.

Hexbear won't let me upload the photo but you got:

The Hermit Reversed | Wheel of Fortune | 4 of Wands

I'll post the pic if photo upload in comments starts working for me, think I may be temporarily rate limited econony

[–] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 9 points 2 days ago

I have some vague understanding of the Tarot party game, enough to read that as "you went on a journey that changed things for the better and you're prospering for it." I mean, this year's been kind of like that already but it's actually kind of ominous if I were to take it seriously: "you need to do that again. Get those change of address forms ready!" sweat

More of a tea reader. All I could assume on this is you'll have an interesting week.

[–] FourteenEyes@hexbear.net 9 points 2 days ago

[–] CrispyFern@hexbear.net 10 points 2 days ago (2 children)

I think thats good? The Fool is a pretty good card to have in the center i think...

Obligatory "there are no 'good' or 'bad' cards, every card has it's own interpretation that can have both positive and negative aspects to it" nerd

[–] Dessa@hexbear.net 13 points 2 days ago (2 children)

I just drew 3 tower cards, send help

[–] SoyViking@hexbear.net 14 points 2 days ago

The cards says you're going to do 9/11 but bigger. Are you in any way related to the Bush dynasty?

[–] abc@hexbear.net 7 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Obligatory "there are no 'good' or 'bad' cards, every card has it's own interpretation that can have both positive and negative aspects to it"

I think that's right too it's all about vibe.

The third card looks like it has a cup of boners.

maybe:

  • its a game and
  • its meant to be played with your own mind. and
  • only because (and only if) your mind happens to have impact on the future, playing in mind with random imaginations comparing them to your situation or projections to the future also happens to have some impact on the future.

maybe 🤷
