I began tracking my deck purchases in 2017 and I now have almost six years of data to review my collecting habits. I will share with you how much I’ve spent year over year on my decks. What I’ve come to realize about myself is I have phases in collecting, similar to what we see in moon phases.
I recorded this video on September 16, 2022. At the time of publishing this video, I calculated my 2022 deck spending at $471.09. I’ve preordered a deck and backed another. During the holiday season, I got a few decks during a Black Friday sale and in December gifted myself a Tarot deck from Amazon. I have amazing decks on my wishlist, but I don’t feel a strong urge to get them. It is my goal to cut the deck spending by half in 2023.
I have spent a total of $5,346.56 on my deck collection from 2016 to 2022. As you can see, I plan to continue tracking my spending in 2023.
To help me forecast my anticipated spending for 2023, I have a column dedicated to “unlikely,” “likely,” and “very likely,” with the last being the ones I will most likely purchase next year. I can filter down to “very likely” and see what the costs of those decks, including shipping, and budget accordingly. The total amount forecasted to spend for my “Very Likely” decks is $288.93.
Of course I could end up adding or removing decks from the wishlist, but, this gives me a general idea of what I plan to spend for my hobby of deck collecting.
Ask yourself, what moon phase you’re in when it comes to your deck collecting!

Lets’ get ready for 2023 together! Here’s a new spread and demonstrate how to use it in this video, now available on YouTube. I often create spreads for my Ko-fi Poised to Leap members and decided to share this one with my subscribers today.
Feel free to use oracle cards in lieu of Tarot or add oracle cards as clarifiers for each position. Whatever feels right to you, go for it. Some of my Poised to Leap members used this spread and just focused on a few key areas.
This is a spread that will help you to see what will help you in formulating your intentions for your new year.
✨Use this spread in conjunction with the Blindspots spread, for a powerful New Year reading:
Decks: The Slow Tarot, White Rabbit Oracle – 1st and 2nd Editions combined.

⚠️Speculation Station! ⚠️ This is how I alerted my viewers and subscribers in this latest video’s description box. It basically warns we are entering speculatory territory with this latest video and truthfully all of the Mystery Mystic readings that are shared on the channel and on this site.
This latest installment was inspired by a conversation I was having in the chat for the Cards Revisited video that was published just before this Part 5 video. A couple of subscribers and I were musing over the roommates and what do or don’t they know about what happened in the days, weeks, or months leading up to the murders? Do they have more information than what has been revealed to the public?
Part 5 is dealing with the elephant in the room or the big question: What’s Up with the Roommates? We also explore whether they know anything about the white car or its occupants.
The Tarot cards depicted in this reading and their corresponding letters that could represent initials, letters in names, or letters for city/town names:
10 of Any Suit = S, T
9 of Any Suit = Q, R
7 of Any Suit = M, N
2 of Ay Suit = C, D
When I saw T for 10 of Swords – I thought of the town of Troy, which is where LE indicates the missing Hyundai Elantra may have traveled.
The letters could be initials or included in names of those who have information or involved in the crime.
I still circle back to someone stalking mainly Kaylee – has a personal issue with her – jealousy also comes to mind. There’s also a sick perversion of feeling like they need to control an outcome. There’s a possessiveness to this perp over one of the victims. It is uncomfortable for me to even sit in that energy for too long. I do feel like the roommates may know some critical information and it was reported during the time of the 9-1-1 call. I sense that Law Enforcement does have an idea of who did this and now they are building a case. It will take time – there is a ton of forensic evidence to sift through. I do not feel like the roommates actually attacked or caused harm to the victims. I do believe they have information that is pertinent to this case.
