Okay, so, today I was messing around with this idea for a “divination deck crossword.” Sounds kinda weird, right? But stick with me here.
First off, I started digging around to see what kind of info I could find about these things. What I basically found out is that there’s this word, “TAROT,” that pops up a lot when you’re talking about divination decks. Apparently, it’s a pretty common answer in crosswords. And it makes sense, tarot cards are like the poster child for divination, you know?
Then, I started to look at more examples, and realized that the crossword clue “Divination deck” has appeared like, maybe 40 times in different puzzles. That’s a lot! And it’s not just in any old puzzles, but in big-name ones like the LA Times. I even found some website that helps you solve crosswords, and they had like 30 different answers for this one clue. Crazy, right?
So, after gathering all this stuff, I decided to make my own little crossword puzzle. Just a small one to start with. I used “TAROT” as one of the main answers since it seemed so popular. Then, I brainstormed some other words related to divination and fortune-telling, like “ORACLE,” “MYSTIC,” and a few others, and filled them in around “TAROT.”
- Started with the main clue: “Divination deck”
- Used “TAROT” (5 letters) as the primary answer
- Added related words like “ORACLE” and “MYSTIC”
- Created a simple grid to fit these words
It took a bit of fiddling to get everything to fit right, but eventually, I had a neat little crossword. It wasn’t anything super fancy, but it was fun to make. And I learned a bit more about how these clues and answers work together.
What I Learned
I guess the main thing I took away from this is that even something that seems a bit out there, like a divination deck crossword, can be a fun little project. It’s all about being curious and seeing where your ideas take you. Plus, you never know what you might learn along the way. Like, who knew “TAROT” was such a crossword celebrity?
Anyway, that’s my little adventure for today. Might try making a bigger crossword next time, or maybe even come up with some other weird puzzle ideas. Who knows!
Until next time, just keeping on keepin on.
