A friend asked me to do a Tarot reading, Ill be doing it tomorrow. But when asking the cards why she wanted the reading (I was alone and shuffling) a card popped out and landed in front of me. So I looked it up:
King of Cups:
Wise Counsel
Situation and Advice: A man of Culture and intelligence will listen to you and offer sound advice.


I have a sarcastic Tarot deck apparently

Mind you in the reading, I never ask the question. I have them shuffle it.
Her question was about moving, There were no less than four cards that directly dealt with moving, the Death card (it doesnt always mean the obvious, but means the end of one cycle to begin another). She was positively freaked out but happy as it was a positive outcome. I got into my car, turned on the radio, then got out and had her listen to what was on it, it was Blue Oyster Cult; Dont Fear the Reaper

That's even more freaky! You must have some aura!

Can you ask your cards if I should go back to STO or not? This game bores me now (maybe missile fix will make it fun for me again) and even the forums are disappointing.

Wanna hear something funny? I ask about STO, I get The Tower for past (and if a game were to embody this its STO) http://www.biddytaro...r-arcana/tower/

Two of swords reversed for the present: http://www.biddytaro.../two-of-swords/ A bit from that:

Quote

The Two of Swords reversed shows that you are caught between a rock and a hard place and you are finding it incredibly difficult to make a decision about what to do. You are really struggling to see what the right choice is as either option will lead to negative consequences. Lay out the pros and cons of each option that is available to you and weigh up which option will have the most favourable outcome.


And Reversed Ace of cups in the future position http://www.biddytaro...ps/ace-of-cups/

Quote

The reversed Ace of Cups may call on you to curb your emotions somewhat for your greater benefit. For example, ending a relationship may spur you on to wanting to cry and cry for days on end but what the Ace of Cups reversed tells us is that in order to heal, you really need to push back the tears and fight on in order to retain a balance. Try not to let your emotions get the better of you or take an unhealthy hold of your life. Sometimes it is possible to express ourselves TOO much, and in doing so, share our vulnerabilities or worse, attack the vulnerabilities of others. Find ways to constructively express what you feel so that you can continue through life with a more balanced perspective.


To me; they say yes you should. The reversed Ace in the future says to me that you should cut your losses.

Dunno; Ive heard a lotta funny things (like never let anyone else touch your deck as it will ruin your connection or a deck can never be bought, it must always be a freely given gift) but what Ive learned is what works for you is what you should do.

Hey that rhymes

many ways to read the deck :P
but basically after shuffling you get the person to place the deck down, then let them grip the deck like they wish to split it but they spin it instead (so the cards have the opportunity to reverse or right themselves before the reading.)

myself I've not read the cards in years i have 2 deck in all,
but i Learned the spinning is an important part, after all you want the Death card facing the right way for the reading,
or you may end up with a red face :D

You sir, have an interesting way of story telling and quite a sarcastic deck indeed. "It's a disaster, and either way you may not be happy, but get over yourself and go back anyway". LOL. Thanks Mr. Buddah! :-)

All I can say is...Romulans. And their escort class ships are sexy! Oh, and their new UI (3.0 for them) looks and performs fantastic. Too bad the romulan expansion pack costs $120, so I may not get it.

Actually, I may have let my negativity here cloud my judgement and reading. That last card could go either way really, and it depends more on your feelings on the matter. It may well mean curb your anger here to bet the greater benefit of what this turns into. Honestly, that feels more right.
I let my anger about the situation here cloud my reading, Apologies.

No worries and thank you for your time! :-)
I tried the new romulans, pretty good content, but pvp is as bad as ever. But there do seem to be winds of change at cryptic, they did a good job with this expansion.

So now I have to eat some crow I suppose.
