Alright, alright, let’s talk about this… uh… chrysalis tarot, yeah? Don’t know what them fancy words mean, but I reckon it’s some kind of fortune tellin’ cards, like them gypsies used to have. My old grandma, bless her soul, she used to read coffee grounds, but cards, them’s newfangled.

So, what’s the deal with this Chrysalis Tarot? First off, they say it’s all about destiny and fortune. Well, ain’t that what we all want to know? Will I win the lottery? Will my chickens lay more eggs? Will that darned rooster stop crowin’ at 4 in the mornin’? That’s real fortune tellin’, not this airy-fairy stuff.
They got this card, see, the Wheel of Fortune. Sounds important, right? Like somethin’ big’s gonna happen. Success, they say. Elevation! That just sounds like goin’ up a hill to me. But then they say it can also mean “increase” and “abundance.” Well, I sure could use some abundance, especially in my cookie jar. Them grandkids are like locusts, I tell ya!
- Destiny: They say this card can tell you your destiny. Hmph, I reckon my destiny is to keep on workin’ till the day I drop. But maybe, just maybe, there’s a surprise or two in there, somethin’ nice, like a big ol’ plate of fried chicken.
- Fortune: Fortune ain’t just money you know. It could be good health, a sunny day, or findin’ a five-dollar bill in your coat pocket. This card, they say, can tell you about that kinda luck.
- Success: Success to me is a garden full of tomatoes and a pantry full of preserves. Maybe this card can tell me if my beans will grow this year. That’d be useful.
Now, they talk about this card bein’ different in different decks. Decks? Like a deck of cards? Well, I guess so. Sounds like these card folks can’t make up their minds. But they all seem to agree on one thing: this card is about what’s happenin’ right now. Not next week, not next year, but right here, right now.
And that makes some sense, I reckon. Like, if you’re feelin’ poorly, the cards might tell you to go see a doctor. Or if you’re wonderin’ if that fella down the road likes you, the cards might give you a hint. Though, I always say, just ask him straight out! No point in beatin’ around the bush.
They say these tarot cards can give you insight, whatever that means. Like, what’s goin’ on behind the scenes. Well, I can tell you what’s goin’ on behind the scenes in my life: a whole lotta chores and not enough time! But maybe the cards can tell me if that sneaky fox is gonna get into my henhouse again. That’d be worth knowin’.

Someone said somethin’ about the Chrysalis Tarot excitin’ their senses. Well, I don’t know about that. My senses get excited by the smell of fresh-baked bread and the sound of rain on the roof. Cards? They just smell like paper to me. But maybe, just maybe, if they can tell me somethin’ useful, like when the fish are bitin’ or if the price of eggs is gonna go up, then maybe I’d get a little excited too.
I heard someone talk about “Major Arcana.” Sounds all highfalutin to me. I bet it just means the important cards. You know, the ones with the fancy pictures. Like that Wheel of Fortune card. They say it’s one of the important ones.
Now, they also mention this “reversed” meanin’. Increase and abundance. Seems like the same thing they said before. Confusin’, ain’t it? Maybe that’s why them fortune tellers charge so much, gotta make sense of all this jibber jabber.
So, is this Chrysalis Tarot any good? I don’t know. Maybe it is, maybe it ain’t. But if it can help you make sense of things, if it can give you a little hope or a little warnin’, then maybe it’s worth a try. Just don’t go bettin’ the farm on it, you hear? Life’s full of surprises, cards or no cards.
And that’s all I gotta say about that chrysalis tarot. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go check on them chickens.
