This deck is Modern Hue Tarot by Writual. It is a soft watercolor version of the RWS. Madame Pamita is a Cancer Sun and author of the book Magical Tarot. She is one of the first witches I found who explained magic in a way that I can understand. While she does sell witchcraft supplies, she always emphasizes that the magic is in you, not the items. She provides lots of free information on her website and weekly Q&As. I like Magical Tarot as it breaks down the imagery and symbolism of the RWS cards. She includes an affirmation for each card and I have included her Magic Words for each card. The Chariot is a container for intuitive movements, powered by will. Following the Lovers in the tarot journey, it asks you to use your values as a guide. Madame Pamita Magic Words: I choose where I go.Queen of Cups is Water + Water. Intuitive, sensitive, and empathetic. Their covered chalice provides a protective container. I wrote this post about the Queen of Cups. Madame Pamita Magic Words: I have the patience to polish the gemstones I hold inside me.Two of Cups corresponds with the 1st decan, 0-10 degrees, and Venus in Cancer. This is a card of partnerships and heartfelt connections. The two figures join their cups in front of a caduceus, symbol of Hermes, a messenger. Sometimes you will need your cup filled. Sometimes you will fill the cup of others. Using tender, clear communication is a key to keeping both cups balanced. Madame Pamita Magic Words: I open my heart to connect meaningfully to others.Three of Cups corresponds with the 2nd decan, 10-20 degrees, and Mercury in Cancer. The three figures dance among the bounty of the harvest with cups raised. Themes of this card are camaraderie and joyous celebrations. Madame Pamita Magic Words: I have so much to celebrate in my life.Four of Cups corresponds with the 3rd decan, 20-30 degrees, and Moon in Cancer. A pensive figure sits under a tree, transfixed on the three cups in front of them. A hand from the cosmos extends another cup, but the figure does not see it. This card is about recognizing there is more and moving past scarcity. The Universe is abundant and generous. Don't let apathy interfere with receiving its gifts. Madame Pamita Magic Words: There is so much in my life to appreciate.Cancer Szn tarot spread. 1. Protect your boundaries. 2. Fortify your roots. 3. Cancer Szn medicine.

Anthony Bourdain: June 25, 1956 ♋Sun. Cancer is in my 9th house of adventure and expansion.

My spouse and I always use Bourdain's philosophy of eating where the locals eat to find the best food when we travel.
