Introduction: Hi and welcome back to my series on Neapolitan Card reading techniques. I have been looking for information about how to use Neapolitan cards for divination.

This information is not original to me, rather, it has been found in various places across the web. https://www.donnaclick.it/cartomanzia/cartomanzia-con-le-carte-napoletane-metodo-delle-due-carte/ http://glispecchidicarta.blogspot.com/2011/12/metodo-due-con ..read more
