Playing Cards Do What??!

Tell fortunes. No, really, they can.
As a study for my current project, (the sequel to The Growing Dim Project), the channel to the paranormal will reside in playing cards. Playing cards, really? Yes, really. My late grandmother taught me that playing cards could be used to tell fortunes and readings. In fact, this is one of the earliest forms of why playing cards became so popular. Gypsies and fortune teller’s alike relied upon playing cards to give them feelings and visions about past, present and future occurrences.
During my research, I fell upon a book by Robert Lee Camp and it explains how each of the cards relates to everyone’s birth, and how everyone, based on their birthdate has a Planetary Ruling Card. The book is very interesting to say the least and I found it compelling enough to want to base my new project from it. I simply had to incorporate this newfound paranormal eyeglass into the unknown into my work. I was inspired from not only my grandmother, but also rather the intrigue I experienced after reading this book and then doing the weekly readings as mentioned in the book. I researched into the subject of using playing cards so much that I even found odd connections between them like the fact that my wife and I even have the identical Birth Card: the ten of clubs. I found this odd and fascinating because our birthdays are three months apart and what I found was that each of the 52 playing cards usually only holds five to six separated birthdays. Cool stuff, huh?
Playing cards and the prophesies they create are being explored and then implemented into my current project, you know, the sequel to The Growing Dim Project that I always talk about. With each of my works, I have decided to include one path of some paranormal experience. There is plenty of research out there and well, I am inspired by it. Each book I write is wrapped in a different genre of music. My current project, (yet to be titled) revolves around jazz music. The Growing Dim Project was based on a cover rock band. You see where I’m going with this.
If the paranormal, supernatural or unworldly entities fascinate you as much as they inspire me, check out my works. They can be downloaded on any major site. However, this particular blog entry is not to just promote my work, it is meant to enthrall you into not being afraid of whatever fascinates you. Playing cards have absorbed me, over the past 2 years. They have helped me develop a new plot that I hope you, the reader will pass on to others.
As for now, thanks for reading and pass this blog along to other fellow readers of the paranormal. Although my books are based from Greek Mythology, they are still classified as paranormal. I can find more inspiration by writing about better topics by having more people that follow this blog.
