Loving my new card holder for my office desk tarot-card-a-day display. The five off-shoot branches are such a nice touch, feels like a very nature-y pentacle. Purchased from The Wheyfarer in Reno, made by Wear ‘N Art. #tarot #tarotsky
The Fool card from the Buffy the Vampire Slayer tarot deck, showing Xander Harris unaware he’s about to fall into an open grave, resting in a small wooden display, a cross-section of a two inch or so wide branch, with five branches (only three are visible from this perspective), radiating out. A small groove has been cut into the surface of the wooden display so that a card can stand up in it. The same card in the same display, rotated ninety degrees so you can see all five thin branches radiating out from the disk of wood. The underside of the wooden display, showing the artist’s mark burned in: WEAR ‘N ART

A brass lamp with the See No Evil, Speak No Evil, Hear No Evil monkeys, with two postcards leaned up against it, one with Pamela Coleman Smith’s artwork for The Empress tarot card, the other a black and white photo of Katherine Hepburn reclining in a rattan peacock chair. In front of the pictures, a set of objects and talismans: a dried gourd, a keyring with three antique keys, an antique silver knife, a poker chip which was used as a drink token at Northern Nevada Pride, and a crocheted human heart. Beneath all that, resting on a slice of geode, the Terra Volatile tarot deck, showing one variant of the Eight of Wands, which features eight sticks growing from a woman’s head.
