Connecting with a Loved One #DACC

╔═━────━▒ ۞ ▒━────━═╗

Hello and Welcome!

╚═━────━▒ ۞ ▒━────━═╝

Hello and welcome today to my version of #DACC which is the Death and Afterlife Chat Challenge! For this challenge, I chose the option to do a tarot spread to connect with a loved one who has ed on. For this challenge, I will be using my Angel Tarot Deck. I chose this deck because I believe that this family member is happy in Heaven. So I want to use the Angels to communicate with them.
