MetaChat, your Bunny Tarot for today is... The seven of cups.→[More:]
This card indicates: A need to reflect upon choices. Sometimes too many choices and opportunities are presented, which need careful consideration if a grave error of judgement is to be avoided. May refer to a variety of choices of people - for example, marriage and other partners. This card may also indicate mystical experience of an inspiring kind. (info via)

So, yeah - I decided to try to give Mecha a tarot reading each day by pulling a card from the Rider Waite deck, then scanning that card and bunny-izing it... Maybe eventually, we'll get a whole bunny tarot set. If anyone else wants to play, mail me, and we'll take turns.
What's under the hanky in the top middle cup? Is that hanky glowing, or fuzzy, or covered with red mold? Or is it perhaps a paramecium? Is a paramecium one of the choices facing us today?
The images aren't all cluttered up with the pseudo-Hermetic iconography of the Rider deck.
By the oddest coincidence, I unearthed my deck while shifting stuff around in the basement. It had been buried for about twenty years. The last time I used it in public was to demonstrate a Shell sort and it freaked out some Xtians.
