Got a reply to my email asking about the infinity symbol;

Yes, the book gives us the number 8 and the infinity symbol (which relates to Anna, who is the magician), among other things

New blog post almost exatly similar to what Elethamei had predicted.

[/quote]eight-of-swords

A woman is tied and blindfolded within a cage of swords. This is the "damned if you do, damned if you don't," card. The Querent is in a situation where they're afraid to move. If they move, they'll get cut. However, the ropes that bind them, the blindfold over their eyes, are their own fears, keeping them still, immobile. And so the longer they stay, the more they constrain and entrap themselves. Ever been in a situation where you're afraid to say anything, so afraid that you second guess yourself, end up saying nothing, tying yourself in knots? But speaking up is going to get you cut to ribbons? That's this card. The Querent must have the strength to endure the cuts, else they'll stay trapped. They must move, for the longer they let the situation continue, the worse it will get.[quote]

Oh, and I didn't even email that to them. That's straight from wikipedia btw. Forgot to put the source earlier.

Cardkeepers posted this as a twitpic to their accn't. Attaching it as it seems relevant to the Interlude entry. To me the handwriting looks similar to that on the FD note

So that letter is weird. Everything we have seen so far is so well written, yet that letter says "that meets the eye" rather than "than meets the eye".

ETA: I asked about the odd wording, and if they knew who sent the letter. My response:

Maybe all the 'mistakes' together give us another message?

Just documenting "mistakes" and words covered up by cards. Covered letters (my best guess) in bold.

I noticed you can spell 'tarot' with the missing/covered letters. Beyond that, no other anagrams have stood out.
