Elemental deck reading?

I'm still really new to reading my elemental deck, but the only way to change that would be through experience, so I though I'd throw a notice out into the depths of the internet. If you send me a question, I'll do a free reading.

It works like this: You send me a question, I ask the cards, and then I tell you what I think it means. The more specific you are, the more specific I can be - You can send an ask with simply "I have a question" and I'll draw a card, but I can't tell you what it means in this specific situation, only what the overall meaning of the card is. If you're a bit more specific ("It's something about a friend" or something like that) I can be a bit more specific too.

I will answer all questions publicly unless other is clearly stated in the ask. And neither I or the cards ca be held responisble for your actions, just in case you take a reading as an excuse to be an asshole. That's just not how it works.

Can you do me a tiny favor?

Sooooooo, I am done with the basic meanings of the elemental deck! Please help me out by looking through them and telling me if there are some of the descriptions you wouldn't have a clue what to do with if you drew that card. Thanks in advance, it is a huge help!

I SORTED OUT THE MACERATION BUCKET!

The two hare skulls are all clean, just needs degreasing, and the teeth are so pretty I can't even asksoferijfjndc. And, of course, the reason that I had to do this was that I found an entire blackbird skeleton! The ribcage was stll attached and aaa! (I did accidentally place my maceration bucket on top of it and crushed it which really sucks, but BONES)

And guess what else has happened?

That's right, peeps! The elemental deck is now officially a thing! And I can say I am excited. they're great to shuffle, a bit grainy because no CMYK-stuff (whoops) but I personally don't think it shows. All I need to now is to get that instruction-list done. I've already tested them on a few friends, but if you have some sort of question, you can send an ask with a question and I'll do a reading! (Please clarify that it's an elemental-deck-question though)

If you want a deck, they're $40 USD, and you can send me a boop on Tumblr is you feel like it, then we'll figure it out.

(also check out that super tidy floor, I cleaned it today, woo!)

Aaaaand DONE! Done, finished, last card is drawn, Nest for dust. Now it's just going over them again to do some final touch-ups, then off to the printer. Eeeee, I'm so excited!

MOAR STUFF!

I think I wanted to say something about this once?

Meh.

Do you want to help me out with my elemental deck? The elemental cards are not just for show. They also tell about the future. They are not able to reveal it, but can give advice on what you could do and what would be wise to avoid. The thing is, I need to write a short description to go with the decks I give away and sell, and it's kind of hard. So I thought that maybe a more 'loose', less commital description might be in order. Are there any of the cards you'd like to hear about? Just send the saurobish name (the one on the card) if you don't know what element it is in english. I'll tell you what I know, and will probably have an easier time writing the formal description. So, send away! You can send as many as you like, but ... Maybe limit it to, eh, a few per ask, when I've answered those, you can send another?

Another of the better ones! Y'know what, maybe it's just about what I am actually able to draw. Heh. I have always loved the showers of sparks that appeared when a log moves in a fire. When I was a kid, I got excited every time the adults had to move something around in there. Who knows, maybe Spark is even my element?

I think I'm beginning to understand the thing with not waiting for inspiration, but just work. Alother thing Loke have helped me with. My practice is changing my life, but so far, it seems like it's for the better. Anyway, a new card! So. Close. Now! This one's a bit dull, and I think it's going to be that way with the remaining ones as well. That's okay, I need practice with dull colours anyway.
