5. Message Game Cards
Unless you’re in secure, stable relationships, you will find yourself preoccupied with matters of the heart. This means figuring out what that friend, lover or family member wants to tell you.

You could use these effectively with the flash cards to learn about another’s day to day. Or you could use them with Oracle cards to gain insight into your person’s internal struggles or spiritual journey.
