Greetings,
As stated in the title, I have +35 years of experience in the art of Cartomancy AND these readings with French Oracle cards are FREE.
I am new to using Reddit but thought this might be a good place to rebuild my fluency with an old French Oracle deck. Not Lenormand but pre-Lenormand.
I would appreciate feedback and some discourse regarding the reading you received!
The questions need to be clear, concise in a single-question format, and not convoluted. Please state only your FIRST NAME or INITIALS and those of the person, place, or business that you are interested in. Please, NO full names. I do not need birth dates.
I do not give New Age readings filled with vague symbolism and cryptic statements couched in non-comprehensible fluffy verbiage. This is Classical fortunetelling nuanced by decades of experience that I will utilize whilst practicing the Oracle readings.
My readings are honest, forthright, kind and at times amusing!
I thank everyone in advance for considering my post and assisting me with rebuilding fluency with a very ancient Oracle deck.
Warmest regards,
Alexis
My friend traded me a Light Gazer, which I really want to play in Cyber Dragons, because it's the only generic level 8 synchro machine monster and I have the means to make it with a little Psyframe engine (I don't own Halq before anyone suggests making that instead). However it's in French because he bought the card in France when he used to live there.
If I took it to a tournament in England would I be allowed to use it, and if so, would I have to have a piece of paper with its type and effect written on it? What will the protocol be for this situation?
I am planning to replace my living room window with outward opening french doors (and then build a deck out there). I am looking for advice from anyone who has done this before. Do you wish you had a sliding door instead? How can I still use screens? What did you learn that might be helpful? Thanks!

Are they tournament legal? I’m curious because I can buy some boxes in French and take them home with me when I move back to the states but I was wondering if it’s even worth doing so, thanks
I hope it's okay to ask this. I just got the idea to post here. I have a meeting with the GC I hired to do some renovations at my house and I think he may have not pulled a permit when he should have. He replaced a 6x4 window with French doors 6x6.5. He hired a sub to do the work. The paperwork says he would get permits, if needed. I called the county and no permits were pulled. This is obviously a load bearing wall, exiting to my deck. The county says that they think a permit should be pulled but he sounded confused when I told him the window was the same width as the new doors. The only place that the opening is wider is just the length of the door down towards the floor. I want to ask him to hire an engineer to do a retroactive permit and to pay for it as I trusted him and paid him for this responsibility. UNLESS, a permit was not needed as the opening was there already (except for the length of door to floor). I would appreciate any thoughts. Thank you!
Hi everyone!
I am researching if a french drain under a deck is feasible and I have seen mixed answers to this question.
I have an old concrete pad next to my deck that was not sloped correctly so water tends to pool there right next to the deck any time it rains. On top of this, I also have a gutter downspout at this area and I recently extended it to the lawn to get as much water discharge off the concrete pad. However, this extension runs in front of the deck stairs which is not an ideal, long-term solution as you would have to step over this extension when going up or down the stairs.
OPTION A
Is it feasible to build a french drain under my deck near the edge (not near the house) and route the gutter extension to discharge there?
OPTION B
Is it a better idea to re-do the gutter structure and reroute the downspout to the other side of the house? The downspout extension would technically still go under the deck given the odd shape of my deck but I would be able to run the discharge beyond the deck instead of having the water discharge under the deck area.
EDITED to add shitty MS paint picture to show my idea for OPTION A. Red rectangle is current downspout extension, green rectangle is proposed idea.

We have been getting water in our crawlspace from different locations: from the ground, the foundation, and below kitchen french doors and ledger board.
We have a pair of french doors installed by contractors for previous owners that door opens out into a small deck to provide access to the front of the house or backyard. According to the foreman who helped on the job almost a decade ago, he recalls this being an all wood Simpson door and installed with a custom pan. I can see part of that metal pan when I look up at that location from the crawlspace. During heavier rain events, I see water leaking down the wall of the crawlspace right below that location.
How can I tell what could be causing the problem so I know the best way to fix?
Here is some info that I do know:
- The foreman (no longer with the same construction company) thinks the door may not have been waterproofed properly/enough.
- There is a deck ledger board bolted through the stucco wall. No idea if that was waterproofed at all.
- No water comes into the kitchen. Hardwood floor area near the door threshold look normal. No warping. Interior walls look dry and no signs of moisture.
- A carpenter looked at the door while on a different job for me and pointed to a hole in the threshold that looked like it was drilled by contractor crew to bolt the non-operable door to the threshold. It did not look like a hole from the factor. He thinks that is at least one sure way water is getting in
- These french doors are not rated for a location with no over hang and has already had some warping and splitting in bottom panel from moisture. Hinges have rust. Gaps in weather stripping such that I can see daylight when looking at the door.
What I need help with his how to identify where the water is coming from. What type of contractor can help me with this and is it as simple methodically spraying the areas with a hose from the bottom up until we see water flow down the interior wall of crawlspace?
In lieu of knowing, 2 different contractors have presented me with 3 options that I'd love input on:
-
Break the stucco around the french doors, waterproof, and put the existing doors back in with new threshold. Remove deck and redo ledger board with waterproofing. Seems like it is more cost effective near term, but I still have a door with no warranty without an overhang.
-
Break the stucco around french doors and install a new door with waterproofing. Also waterproof deck ledger boar
I've fallen in love with the game French Tarot, but boy oh boy is it hard to find a decent deck. I'm hoping I can get some suggestions!
My ideal deck would
- Be French Suited (clubs, hearts, diamond spades, not swords, wands, pentacles, and cups)
- be tarot-sized, not poker-sized
- be in stock places and not cost a billion dollars
- have a linen finish (not necessary)
- have indices on the trumps (also not necessary, but highly desireable)
- look pretty good
Anybody have any suggestions?
Hey future IB graduates, this is an M21 fellow here! Finishing my exams, I just thought I would share the most useful tool in my IB career with y’all -- Anki! Anki helped me tremendously with HL English A, HL Chemistry, HL Biology, SL History, and SL French B. In fact, the program helped me so much that I didn’t really need to study the subject material 2 months before the exam because the spaced-repetition and active recall aspect of the program allowed me to internalize all the information over the span of my time in the IB. In effect, I was able to use the months leading to exams to solely practice mock tests and past papers. Finishing these exams, I came out wanting to share my anki decks as a way to thank this reddit and hopefully help any students who may find this method of study as useful for them as it was for me.

WHAT IS ANKI?
Anki is a flashcard program that allows you to memorize a large volume of material over a specific period of time. Anki accommodates an algorithm that allows you to do this (what is known as spaced repetition) and the principle of active recall, which is a far more effective method of internalization than taking notes. In IBDP year 1, I made the mistake of likening good studying to pretty notes, and this couldn’t be any further away from the truth. By the end of March 2020, I started making flashcards on Anki and began studying them religiously every day for the next year. In studying flashcards, Anki registers the ease at which you answer a question/card and schedules a review for that card accordingly. As a result, you only study the cards you need to, and you study them in algorithmically repetitive enough intervals until recalling the information is as second nature as breathing. I’ve linked below a few videos to help familiarize yourself with Anki, its scientific advantages, and the settings I used specifically.

... keep reading on reddit ➡Hello,
I'd like to find a deck that can be used for both divination (preferably RWS, but other traditions are OK) and playing French tarot. Basically any divination deck can do in principle (the only thing you need for playing is 21 + 1 major arcana / trump cards, and 1-10PNQK in 4 different suits), but the main thing I'd want is card indices in the corners on all cards, which is seemingly very rare in divination decks.
Something illustrated would be good; I've found nice playing tarot decks, but they use French suits instead of Italian, and have unrelated images for trumps.
Any ideas or pointers are appreciated!
I posted about it (https://www.reddit.com/r/medicalschoolanki/comments/ny2e72/my_500_days_streak_that_will_end_in_3_days_when/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3) and several redditors requested me to share my cards so there it is : https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/582892780
I hope you find it useful!
