Mystic Cards
A Mystic Card takes the constellation riding highest over you right now, where you stand, and hands you the old Greek myth behind its name, painted in our own hand, with the constellation's realstars laid over it in their true positions. Draw what's near, or draw at random.
It isn't a fortune. It's an invitation, sit with an ancient story for a minute and notice what it echoes in your own week. The constellation overhead changes through the night and the seasons; or pick any of the 33 below.

Arcas
the small bear
Callisto's son Arcas, set into the sky beside his mother so he would never hunt her by accident again. Polaris sits at the end of his tail, the star that does not move, the small bear that keeps the pole. The child made into the navigator of his own mother's circle.
Stay close to the one you circle with, no words needed.
