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
Pegasus
the winged horse
Born from the blood of Medusa when Perseus cut her head off. Wherever his hooves struck the rock, springs appeared. Bellerophon rode him too high, was thrown off, and Pegasus kept rising, straight into the stars. The horse that does not need a rider.
You can put the saddle down, what you carry is not who you are.
