Card Meanings
Just quickly slapping this together for good measure. Most of the card pages don’t have any content yet. There will be a status indicator if there is.
Obligatory disclaimer
These are my personal interpretations of these cards. This is not a sole source of truth. I tend to be rather picky (and sometimes even odd!) with how I interpret various tarot cards. Take what you like, and leave the rest.
