Have you ever had a tarot reading? Last time we were in New Orleans we came across an older lady on the sidewalk in front of Jackson Square, with a lap table and deck of tarot cards. She only asked $10 for a reading, so I gave it a whirl.The positions of the 9-card life cycle tarot card spread take advantage of the properties of the magic number ‘9.’ That’s what I chose for her reading.

A reading of the 9-card spread provides a view of your past, present, and future at three depths

the body (unconscious)
mind (personality, ego) and
soul (higher power)
It was fun to watch the whole presentation and added some extra magical qualities to our evening in the French Quarter.
