TAROT readers are only doing it to make character judgments for which they would otherwise be punched, it has emerged.
Tarot readings, supposedly offering a glimpse of the future, are instead providing a long, unwavering look at all your shortcomings and faults half-concealed by symbolism.
Self-styled mystic Francesca Johnson said: “See, the Seven of Swords here shows where you’ve tried to be cunning and trick someone, perhaps by looking at your mobile while you were in the toilet during the pub quiz, but they’ve seen through it.
“Coins represent the material world and the Six of Coins here is suggesting you could benefit from being more generous, maybe by paying your fair share of the taxi for example.
“And finally the Devil, which is the way you’ve been acting to your friends since you got together with that knobhead Ryan.”
Friend Susan Traherne was astonished that the spirit world remembered a thousand petty slights.
She said: “Oddly, when Fran read her own cards the Death one came up, which she explained doesn’t mean actual death but is more about the end of one phase and the beginning of another.
“I do hope she’s got that wrong.”
