Welcome to Litsy!

We saw road signs for a Danish windmill in the middle of Iowa on our way to see John Green. What was supposed to be a quick detour for it turned into about an hour of book shopping, touring the grounds, looking at trinkets, and an impromptu mead tasting with two old ladies who sold me some Viking Blod to sip while I read my new book of Nordic folk tales tonight. 🤍

I can‘t seem to ‘‘like‘ or comment on anyone‘s posts, or even when I select a book add my own pic. I have logged all the way out on my iPad and back in again, but that hasn‘t helped. Hope someone can assist. #litsy

Interesting font choice.

(I just randomly opened the book and took a picture. Didn‘t read it until just now. Is the universe outing me? I don‘t think I‘m exactly the Queen of swords but….)

I‘m taking stock and letting go of some decks I bought on impulse. If anyone is interested in any of these decks or if you know someone who might be let me know I‘m the comments. They are barely used.
Tarot Mucha
Tarot of White Cats
Tarot of Pagan Cats
Crow Tarot

I‘ll pay postage and everything!

I‘ve always been fascinated by tarot. It probably started when I was 12 and saw a deck in a bookstore and bought it…and didn‘t do more than look at the cards (I wish I still had the lovely box I kept them in). I decided to get serious about learning tarot in 2020.

Fast forward 4 years and … I still haven‘t learned tarot. But I have a couple decks and a bunch of books! I‘ve been thinking about my cards a lot recently. I might be dipping back in.

1 - I consulted the star signs so many times the spine split completely in two
2 - Isak Dinesen was a favorite author from early adulthood. I particularly loved Seven Gothic Tales and Anecdotes of Destiny
3 - Christian Kracht‘s Imperium: a Fiction of the South Seas
