Morty sits at a side table in a dark and noisy pub. On the table before him, is a darkened gin glass half-filled with the pungent butts of hand-rolled cigarettes. The eraser pony comes skittering in full-speed ahead, and comes to a grinding halt in front of the chicken.
MORTY

What were the bottom cards of the three piles Pigmy?
PIGMY PONY
Ah
1) Stars 2) Coffin and 3) Book. The General theme is the first card, is Stars, Morty. Stars are kind of like Butterlies, don't you think? Both are sort of a spark of light from somewhere far away - a light that flickers and flutters, and disappears. Yellow butterflies are like far off bits of sun, come from out of nowhere. Now when I look for butterflies in these cards I see a few butterflies on the SCYTHE - a dragonfly on the LILIES, but you know what reminds me of Butterflies the most in these cards, Morty, are the butterfly-winged fairies on the CHILD. The Child card shows a little girl in a swing. There is a green fairy climbing in the tree branch above the child, a blue fairy flying towards the child, and a little blue-green fairy slurping strawberries near her feet.
I don't know what they mean yet!
I would also like to point out, the Lady has a bunch of solid cards above and under her. The book says what is under the person card, is what you are suppressing, but in this spread, I want to say it is not suppression, but
foundation. She has MAN under her, and ANCHOR, it makes me think she is probably well-grounded and in a good solid relationship.
I notice something interesting too, in that the SHIP is underneath the ANCHOR. It makes me think that underneath the solid foundation is a lot of water. At first I thought it might a bit of a shakeup could create a liquifaction disaster in the foundation that would suck everything under... but when I looked at it again, I thought of an underground stream ... I think the water in the SHIP card shows me that underneath the solid foundation, is a fount of creativity that is flowing happily, perhaps the job harnasses a steady stream of creative inspriation, something artistic.
What lies on top of the lady is the bouquet of FLOWERS - something that shows to me she will be showered with accolades, and receive adulation. That whole line looks very happy to me.
To the right of the Lady card - these cards represent the past - and it is not so happy. We see mice and clouds, it suggests worries in the past has been eating away at her, and the cards to the left - her future cards, do not show the worries dissipating quickly. On the contrary, the SCYTHE points to the BOOK suggesting that she may be keeping these worries secret within, and their festering risks cause danger even to her health, if an outlet is not found for them. However the DOG, CLOVER, and STORK in the further future, suggest that a wonderful friend will come to her aid. We see the butterflies of the SCYTHE card, reflect as a patch of yellow in the glass ball the DOG is playing with. Perhaps a faithful friend will allow the butterflies to escape into the mirror, and bring relief, good luck, good cheer, and happy change.
Or perhaps what the DOG's ball, the fairies and the CHILD are all trying to say, is PLAY PLAY PLAY. A suggestion to play ball with the dog, ride in a swing, will let the inner clouds fly. Do you think that is part of the message of the butterflies?
