Did you use > a "standard" layout or devise your own? I haven't done readings with Fluxx, but I have some experience with Tarot decks and cartomancy in general. Remember that this is a party. Everybody wants a positive reading and nobody will be angry if they think you're making it up. I'd use just the Keepers (minus 'Death' and read 'War' as "Conflict"), and do a three card "past, present, future" reading. Have them state their question, so you know what to talk about. The past is always full of trouble, the present is always frustrating or aiding progress, and the future is always vaguely positive. Question: How will my current project go? Sample reading for cookies, sun, and rocket: Past: I see you taking small bits of the project and not getting far. Present: But you keep working on it a bit every day! Future: I see you blasting forward to success. Sample reading for milk, peace, time: Past: It's been slow going so far, sort of "back to basics". Present: You're OK with that, but maybe worrying under the surface. Future: Time might be a problem, but maybe you have enough of it. Etcetera. -- Elliott C. "Eeyore" Evans eeyore@xxxxxxxx
