Five of swords from the Lubanko tarot. A muscled figure, sillhouetted against a sickly yellow sky, walks, with their back straight and their head up, three swords still on their back, up some stairs. Behind them, two other swords lie on the ground, with two other figures seemingly about to pick them up.

Feeling Safe With Myself: Journal the Fourth

Eight of Swords card from the Lubanko tarot. A pale, nearly naked person lies on their back with eight swords around them. Their legs are wrapped with black ties, there are red flowers and petals around them, and what looks like a rib cage to their right. They are taking off or putting on a mask in the shape of a dog's head.

Welcome to my Voyage on the Good Ship Self-Help

A small, battered, blue notebook with a rabbit cut into the cover. Illegible words have been written on it in black permanent marker. Inset in the bottom right corner is childish pencilled writing, reading "this story" and, on a separate line, "hope you like it". At the top of the whole picture is written "My first book!" in an old fashioned typeface.
