Tarot Deck Used: Anne Stokes Gothic Tarot
Card Drawn: Three of Pentacles
Meaning (short form): Completion, Teamwork, Good Results
Meaning (long form): This suit, most often named “Coins” or “Pentacles”, is a symbol for a magical talisman that represented wealth or potential. This suit represents something supportive that is available to you — whether it be health, some kind of talent, a material or financial resource.
The Three is traditionally the card of genius. Here we usually see a master craftsman conferring with his masons on the installation of a beautiful stained-glass window in the cathedral. This designer is often likened to Leonardo da Vinci or Michelangelo, a multi-talented visionary who has no peers in talent or productivity.
The masterwork is being proudly showcased for future generations, as an object of personal and collective pride. On some cards, the genius is portrayed at his studio, alone and burning the midnight oil, in a creative ferment — driven to draw, paint, invent, or whatever work genius wants to bring into creation. As a subtext to the rewards of genius are the days and weeks of intense concentration it takes to solve the problems that great works entail.

Card Drawn: Nemesis ~ She Who Avenges
Meaning (short form): Revenge, Outcomes, Justice
Meaning (long form): Nemesis, she who avenges, teaches a powerful lesson. Fight poison with poison and both sides will lose. Revenge may seem the best answer, but carefully consider the outcome. How much of yourself are you willing to lose when faced with someone that has themselves set against you? Even if you wear a mask, you cannot hide form your own actions. Nemesis is the inescapable one who exacts retribution from those who would set themselves above the Higher Powers. This Nemesis card serves as a caution when drawn.
