Those are Pinned posts, marked by the red Pins on the left side. They always stay at the top. You have to scroll down to see the regular new posts. :) They've always been there

And I set it to show by most recently updated. It's the same in 5 browsers....

Sure:

Yes, my tech support is showing chronological. Do you have a screenshot by chance?

It's only the tech forum assistance doing that... The rest of the forums are fine.

Mine is showing the most recent threads at the top, sans the pinned posts. Can't replicate.

Hi again, @Moon-Hermit The answers now may come across a bit hair-splitty, that's not due to me wanting to enforce anything, it's just the Lenormands - the more you go into detail, the harder it gets to talk about in a roundabout way. Here we go: It is not beneficial - it is kind of beneficial. When the mountains turn up, the situation described is challenging, it takes that flavour to the read no matter where. When to the far left of a line, it can point towards having past over the worst part of it. It is a barrier, in a sense. So long as the one you read for does not want to go back and change the situation and instead is ready to move on, it makes it unlikely that the other side takes action to interfere with that, which is kind of beneficial - the querent/client/seeker can focus on how to proceed without worries. However, that's it. If the q/c/s is hell-bent on changing the situation instead of walking away from it, it is mountaineering-time again. Somehow, the quote-function stopped to work for me right now, so the below had to be cited old-school: "I think whatever you decide on (about choosing directions in different decks) the universe or whatever is out there responds accordingly, as long as you remain consistent. I had a similar experience with the Whip and Ring. I used to read the former as repetition at first, but then switched to the latter later. Where the Whip used to come up for me as repetition, it’s now the Ring. Everything syncs with the other stuff as long as we are not confused ourselves, I suppose." That's where I tend to say "The cards do conform to their user to a degree". What I found to be important is that it has to make sense to the user. The cards (by virtue of our graceful universe) conform most to the things which make it easier for the user to grasp a wider scope of information. There's two parts to consider: Personal affinity as well as open-mindedness. It does stay a learning experience, where we make it easier and easier to deal with more and more information, in the range of human limitedness. The universe itself in its wholeness definitely is a notch above what our brains can handle, but we're getting there. Slowly, and step by step. Steady makes the race, wasn't it?

I've tried in several browsers, including the one with NO security settings, which I save for times like this. And the multiquote has sorted itself without my making any changes. But it would be good if it were chronological.

On a tight budget, but I was able to back the smaller School of the Heart (50 cards) companion deck!

When you know - you know. Imo. There is one person with whom I was absolutely certain I had past life links. I met her one evening at a pyjama party at University in my 1st year. We were standing in line to get into the party and struck up a conversation. She was from Guadalupe, France. Our meeting was like when old friends who haven't seen each other for years, pick up where they left off as if nothing has happened. If you catch my drift. And we were fast and comfortable friends onwards, until the day she went back to Guadalupe and I never heard from her again. Maybe - this is also why I so like Our Lady of Guadelupe.

This section has a "special status" as it's public for people who get locked out and it might need adjusting to make it chronological again. We will look into it. About the Follow button and opening in a new tab, this is almost certainly your browser settings. I saw in another thread you couldn't multi quote posts. You need to tone down some of the security settings in your browser for the forum, things like multi quote and thread buttons don't work with the highest security settings in browsers. You have to allow some of them and then it works fine. You can test this out by browsing in Incognito Mode / Private Browsing. If it works fine, it's security add ons / settings. Too high security seems to block cross thread things, which is why opening in a new tab makes Follow work.

Haha!

LOL. Well I guess I am going to be madame square eyes today!

Ah! It was the Hermit in the reading, not the Hanged Man. Might have been in episode two.

Yes - I was waiting for the reading interpretations, so I could see what you were referring to about The Hanged Man. Lol. We see this table in the 1st episode with Fry glancing at it and commenting that "somebody is trying to contact the dead" - or along those lines. Interesting comment for the spread. I do like how she says it in such a matter-of-fact way (the character, Fry).

The follow button only works if you open it in a new tab. (Also the tech assistance forum doesn't show the most recent threads at the top; I had to find this one using my own activity, but didn't want to start a new one; I have retitled it to say it's for glitches in the new software,)

And then there's this deck which is OOP and has been on my wish list for years 🙃: The McCullough Effect Steampunk Tarot. It's the last thing I was expecting to see on my day off!

I'm not sure I'll ever read with this one. But it pretty interesting. The back of the cards is quite beautiful:

So I had an unexpected day off this week - which I spent in my favourite occult bookstore - Treadwells Bookshop, Bloomsbury, London. And I have acquired some more bed-time decks: This is the front and back of the same cards. Some of them are quite interesting.

No cards in the first episode? I had to go back and check, and this was at roughly 34 minutes in. But the coming episodes has more of it, I don’t believe she ever did any interpretations of the cards in the first episode. They were just there at the table, if I remember correctly

I'm never spoiled by spoilers. Just completed 1st episode with no cards, screaming heads and a hand of glory. I rather like series like this which have a quirky flavour. I can't wait for the next instalment...🤓

@Mister thank you so much for sharing such helpful information. I truly appreciate it. May I ask how it would be beneficial? You mean it in the sense that, if, for example, a positive card comes up after it’s good because you’ve managed to get over whatever that obstacle was? Ah! This is the part I couldn’t find anywhere, or figure out on my own. So interesting, thanks for explaining it. Ooh, I didn’t know this one, but it’s similar to how I read the gaze of the Jack of Clubs. Wherever he looks signifies what he wants to pick a fight on. Though their being pissed off has different reasons; the Queen of Clubs like you said, means it out of spite, whilst the Jack of Clubs can be just hot headed and too easily provoked. This all makes a lot of sense. What I initially learned was that whatever the Court cards have turned their backs on is what they ignore— in the case of the Queen of Clubs, it’s what she misses. But what you explained here sounds logical, especially as it can also be applied to the card’s illustration. I think whatever you decide on (about choosing directions in different decks) the universe or whatever is out there responds accordingly, as long as you remain consistent. I had a similar experience with the Whip and Ring. I used to read the former as repetition at first, but then switched to the latter later. Where the Whip used to come up for me as repetition, it’s now the Ring. Everything syncs with the other stuff as long as we are not confused ourselves, I suppose.

Yes, now when you have the result in your hand, everything is clear!😉👍

About the ending, I am going to try very hard to not do any spoilers, but I believe that the reading with the Hermit card held the key to that surprising turn of events. It was given an unusual interpretation, and in hindsight it all fits very well. I did enjoy how she interpreted Wheel of Fortune as gambling, and (if I remember correctly) the 10 of Pentacles as 'money'. I agree that it would have been nice to see the cards more clearly, but I guess we can always go back and pause to look at the cards more carefully. I too hope, and believe, that there will be another season.

I have just seen the last episod, couldn´t belief the ending... But it was a good tv-serie and I hope that there will be more episodes. Wish they would have showed the cards more open...
