Fall 1, 511 AV Blythe sat on the grass, directly across from her client. Streamers of golden-colored sunlight swept downwards, towards their island, bathing their pale flesh in its light. Causing the scales that lined their foreheads to sparkle. A clear, light blue sky danced around the sun, as several large, white fluffy clouds circled it, blocking it from sight from time to time. Before they were pushed into another section of the sky. "If you wish to ask the cards if you will be receiving a raise, then perhaps, we should use the three cards spread," Blythe said, as she shuffled her shadowscapes tarot deck. "The spread provides insight into the emerging arc of the past present of future," she explained. "Thus, it should be able to provide us information on how you work... which could help us to determine whether or not you have earned a raise." She paused for a moment. "We won't be using a significator for this reading, or a card that represents you." The konti sitting across from Blythe nodded as she stopped shuffling the cards, and began to spread them out between each of them. Laying the cards face down. "Pick three cards for the reading," Blythe instructed. "The ones your left hand feels guided to when it passes over them... when you have found them, hand the cards to me." The woman nodded, and soon did as she was told. She handed Blythe the cards. Blythe placed the three cards her client had chosen on her right knee. She then scooped up all the cards that would not be used during the course of the reading and placed them back in the box. Afterwards, she placed the box to her side. She then lifted the three cards on her knee, and spread them out before them, face down. The first card to the left, the second in the stack in the middle, and the one on the bottom to the right. "Ready?" Blythe asked. Her client nodded. Blythe flipped over the first card, the one on the left. It revealed a scantily clad woman with hair like fire holding onto a proud, and ferocious looking lion. She was surrounded by siamese cats, swans, and an uncertain sky. "This card represents an important element of your past," Blythe explained. "This is the strength card. It signifies power, health and physical fortitude. It represents your ability to recover from an illness. A sort of victory after a period of prolonged fear, or even anxiety. The ability to overcome any obstacles." Blythe paused for a moment, allowing her words to sink in before she continued. "Given the early stages of this reading, it seems as though you have been a diligent, and hard-working employee in the past. You are strong- good at what you do. Skilled, something your employer should value greatly, if he or she has any sense." Blythe paused, "you often show up to work in good health, and should you fall sick, you quickly recover and return to your duties... you take your work very seriously, and although at times, your work life can become difficult, causing you to doubt yourself on occasion, you manage to pull through."
