Fortune in Your Hands cover

See into and even influence the future with just an ordinary deck of playing cards. Alaric Albertsson teaches you how this common household item, which has a history as long and prestigious as any Tarot deck, can reveal profound divinatory insights through numerology and elemental associations. Fortune in Your Hands presents in-depth explanations of all fifty-two cards, suit by suit, and shows you why playing cards can be the best divination tool for you. Discover how the cards relate to the four elements, how each card's number is more significant than one might assume, and how a variety of spreads, from single to three or more draws, gives context to your query or situation. Learn the ethics of divination, how to cast spells with the cards, and much more. With this book and a humble deck, you really can hold your fortune in your hands.

"Alaric Albertsson brings Witches back to the magickal art of playing cards, an often forgotten part of our Craft. As he takes us through the history of reading cards and clears up common misconceptions, shares the esoteric theories of the elements and numbers, and most importantly, teaches the practical applications of this art, we can learn from him as a trusted magickal elder passing on an important part of the modern Witch's legacy to us."—Christopher Penczak, bestselling author of the Temple of Witchcraft series
