They have been studying one of the many methods of reading Italian regional playing cards for the past year, a 400 year old divination method that utilizes cards designated for games such as scopa, calabresella, and have deep cultural ties to Italy. These cards differ depending on the region of Italy, including Spanish-influenced decks, Northern decks, German-influenced decks, and French-influenced decks. Similar to the folk magic of Italy, each family, person, and player reads their cards slightly differently and prescribes slightly different meanings, providing a unique experience focused on everyday matters and direct answers.
