Tarot readers...?

Question

Do you have a favorite tarot deck? Why?

Answer 1

Oh my! Where do I start? I'm an unashamed Tarot addict and have quite a few decks.

I enjoy working with different decks, and depending on who I'm reading for, and the type of reading I'm doing, will work with different decks.

I enjoy working with the Thoth tarot.

Answer 2

I use Legend The Arthurian Tarot.

I have always loved Camelot and it's inhabitants. When I first saw the deck I knew it was the one for me. It makes me happy to use it. I have others, but this one is my favorite. Because I have an affinity for them, they work  the best for me as well.

Answer 3

Benedetti style is me.

Answer 4

I've always enjoyed the Aleister Crowley O.T.O. deck. While I don't believe that it genuinely came from the Book of Thoth, the art work is awesome!

Answer 5

i used to use the norse tarot - mainly as im interested in norse mythology but it also supplemented rune stone readings that i did

Answer 6

I personally believe reading cards is a silly bunch of nonsense, but that's just me.Someone told me if i spoke in a bad way to an Ouiga board bad things would happent to me.I bought one,took it to the woods, deficated on it and called it every curse word I've learned in my 54 years, not even a wart on my nose. So much for that theory. Look on the Ouiga board box (Parker Brothers), same as Monopoly, a childs game. Just my beliefs.Really the Ouiga board didn't get me!

Answer 7

The Sacred Circle Tarot

http://www.aeclectic.net/tarot/cards/sac...

It is very Celtic Pagan oriented - which suits me quite nicely as a Celtic Wiccan.  The artwork is cool.  Many of the cards feature real sacred sites in Celtic countries, like Stonehenge, the Dolmens, etc. and the accompanying book provides some info and a bit of history of these sites - so you learn a little something extra with this set.

I felt a connection to this deck upon seeing a friend's cards, who later bought the deck and book set for me for my birthday.  Of my numerous decks, this is my favorite and the one I have the easiest time reading/interpreting with.

O.W.2 - what does a ouija board have to do with tarot?  Two totally different things there.  And while Parker Brothers owns the name of "ouija", such "talking boards" (called by other names: spirit board, witch board, etc.) have been around for quite some time.  It is thought to be a method to communicate with spirits.

Tarot on the other hand, is a tool to help one access their inner-self, their subconscious mind, which helps to answer questions and provide guidance to their conscious mind.  Nothing to do with spirits, nor even "fortune telling" as some people seem to think.  The symbolism of the cards help one to look at their life and current situations from different angles and gain some insights.
