‘Being united themselves, they ought one and all to set their faces against employing any man who is united with any other man,’ said Mrs. Sparsit.

Card from the Incubus Tarot deck. Five of Pentacles. A man and woman in front of a wall with a window. He stands leaning on a cane. She sits on the ground, with two bowls, a bottle nearby. On the window, five pentacles.
#Tarot underneath/shadow card of evening: Five of Pentacles. Even if things are tight, if you can stretch resources to spare a coin or two for another in need, even in your own need, do so. In the #HardTimes, each other is what we have, strengthen the bonds.
