[Tarot/Writing] Come get a card and maybe a tale
I have just lost my job. As my grandmother and I barely keep our heads above water with my job, this is a serious problem for me. I am looking into many avenues of trying to make up for this fact. This post is one of them.
As some of you know, I do Tarot. I have worked with Tarot cards seriously for eleven years, on and off. I also write. This point will become relevant in a few paragraphs.
So here's how this is going to work:
Comment here if you would like free one-card draw. Let me know if you have a focus or just want a general reading, and I will do a pull for you, free of charge. With this card will come a two-to-three sentence sample of a story, based off this card and its meaning.
Here comes the donation aspect:
If you would like a further reading, here are the prices:
$2 for a three-card draw (past/present/future and mind/body/spirit are the defaults but if you have a question that works better with a different layout, I will work it out)
$5 for a mini-Celtic Cross spread (6 cards, basically the "cross" part of Celtic Cross")
$8 for a full Celtic Cross spread (10 cards)
$10 for a month-by-month view of the year to come (12 cards)
This reading will be emailed or PMed to you -- please tell me your preference when it is commissioned.
If you would like more of the story, including an optional extra prompt that you can leave for me, here are the prices:
$3 will get you a 500 word story
$6 will get you a 750 word story
$8 will get you a 1000 word story
This story will be emailed to you, but for a dollar extra, you can make it publicly available.
The decks I have at my disposal at the moment are as followed: (EDIT: As of 3/14, this list has changed.)
Cat's Eye Tarot
Dreaming Way Tarot
Fallen Angel Oracle Cards
Spiral Tarot
Little People Tarot
Robin-Wood Tarot
If you don't pick a deck, I will pick one that seems to fit.
All donations should be made to toomanytongues@gmail.com through Paypal. [If this looks familiar, it's because I am currently without Paypal myself and my partner is letting me borrow theirs.] Thank you.

Edit: Forgot to add that for you, I went with the Dreaming Way deck
The Empress: The mother card, though that interpretation can range from flat-out what's on the tin motherhood to being the "parent" of anything. New creation, new project, new job? Something new is either in your life or your near future, something you will care for and likely be proud of. Take good care and "mother" your "child", whatever it may be, well. Rewards may come from it, but the experience will be the biggest reward in and of itself.
Your Story:
They dance in the windy night, three women round the bonfire, moving to music in their head. The firelight catches the sweat and sheen on their bodies, turning them into something new, something mystical. The swell of her belly shines like a miracle; her callused hands hold the secret of creation in their wrinkles; her shoulders are as steady and strong as the ground beneath their feet, there for as many people to rest their burdens on.
