Magical festival
It's probably past many customers' bedtimes, but the festive atmosphere keeps growing (perhaps BECAUSE it's past many customers' bedtimes -- a little bit of sugar goes a long way). Mrs. Powers, a local psychic, is doing palm and Tarot readings; magician King Chapman, after performing tricks for passers-by, is preparing for his show; and there's face painting, Potter trivia, book readings and general revelry.

Two things: King Chapman has the best-behaved rabbits I've ever seen. And yes, I had a reading from Mrs. Powers. Very interesting.

(What, you think I'm going to reveal my fortune? Get your own psychic.)
Tarot is more fun, interesting and authentic as an actual card game. Tarot has no historical connections with astrology or Kabbalah. The Tarot deck was created for playing a trick taking card game. Descendents of the original tarot card game are still played in France, Italy, Switzerland, and Austria. Tarot is really for card games, people!
