The week ahead is full of stumbling blocks and challenges. Focus on one task at a time and don’t push too hard.

This week we'll be using the Alchemical Tarot. It's an underused deck in my collection. I love the design on the back, but the imagery can be confusing.

#WeekAhead #Tarot #SecularTarot

The back of a standard sized tarot card. A large red rose is drawn in the centre. It sits inside a blue oval shape which itself is filled with solid yellow. The background is split along the diagonal with the top right a checkerboard pattern and the bottom left solid red. All images are contained within a narrow blue triangle which itself is lined in black.
