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.

A Mystic Card · the constellation over you now
Perseus
the hero with the mirror
He used a polished shield to look at Medusa without turning to stone. He used winged sandals to fly. He used a folded bag to carry her head. Every problem was already a tool, the gift of every god he had asked. He freed Andromeda on the way home.
You already carry the tool this problem needs, check your hands before you panic.
