I have a (creepy) story to share while I’m drinking my morning coffee. Maybe you’ll sit with your cup while you’re reading, too.
A few weeks ago my best friend got married. I packed up some things for myself and the kids and thought “I should bring my cards, her gram might be there.”
Her gram, someone that I had never met but heard stories about since we were in 4th grade, was in fact there. I was so excited to finally meet her. I had heard stories far and wide about things like “don’t put your hand on a random hand print from a window or you’ll open a doorway”, the meaning of colors or creepy things that happen always had some kind of explanation, and when my friend bought her her first Tarot deck her gram took to them like she had always been reading them. She’s such an intuitive lady. I was so eager to finally meet her.
She’s honestly the basis of our friendship—we have so many things in common in regards to the paranormal and it’s all because of her grams influence.
Anyways, I’m sitting with her gram and I pull out my cards. I have my Memento Mori deck thinking maybe she would love it. She pulls the horseshoe and tells me that it signifies strength and family. And then she pulls out of the middle, this card—the Casket. She looks at me seriously and points at the white flowers and says “someone may look at this and say ‘oh, look at the pretty flowers!’” And then she grabs my wrist and points at the casket “grab their arm and feel for their pulse like I’m doing to you right now, if it stays racing tell them you’re not going to read for them today. They’re bad.”
I am still so blown away and kind of creeped out but also have so much more respect for her gram than I did before.
Not to mention an old ghost came up later that week. Im not sure that she realizes, but she probably knows, that she had given me a strong message about treading lightly and walking on eggshells.
You can’t read for everyone and I most often have an anxiety attack around those bad energies anyways.
