Tarot School 9 years, 3 months agoHey, I’m Alannah. I’m pretty quiet ’round Autostraddle but I thought I’d maybe start posting more. I’ve been reading tarot for a few years off and on but never really found it spoke to me. The old-timey images don’t really give me much, but I only recently discovered how radical tarot can be. That changed everything, and it felt like it could…[Read more]

Tarot School 9 years, 3 months agoSo I read tarot and anglo Saxon runes and I find it that switching between tarot types confuses me. I am have the celtic tarot(based on rider Waite ) and the science tarot developed by Ann druyen which is gorgeous BTW, but it’s not based on rider Waite. It’s an entirely novel system(still tarot, not an oracle) and I find it hard to glean anything…[Read more]

I’ve definitely had decks where I loved the art, but I had mega trouble actually reading the cards. Some will speak to you more than others, and I feel like it’s fine to collect decks for the art and imagery whether you actively read from them or not. Don’t really have any experience with non-tarot oracles, though.
-
With my decks it’s more that I get very different vibes from each one, so I read a little differently. I mean, I’ll be a little snarky maybe, but my tone is completely different. And I feel differently with them.
I do struggle with really connecting to the RWS itself, but I feel like it’ll get there.

Tarot School 9 years, 3 months agoI see a lot of new folks! Who wants to introduce themselves? I’d love to hear from everyone!
I’m Potter and I’ve recently became partners-in-crime with the Housewives Tarot deck; you can see my post about it below.

Tarot School 9 years, 3 months agoSo my new decks came in this morning! I did the deck interview spread with the Housewives Tarot. It’s long, lol. FYI!
Before I get started, I want to note that I like the cards and how they feel. But man, are they annoying to shuffle! Otherwise, they’re a good size for my hands and just look fanfuckintastic.

Too fun! I love how you interpreted the cards here, and I love that spread! Where did you get it? Did you write it? I can’t think of anything to add, this is all just giving me new ideas.
-
Thanks! Lol, no, Beth uses it on Little Red Tarot; it’s a great spread! I just did it with the Wild Wood Tarot too.
-
I gotta go do that with all my decks now.
-
So do I. I’ve been using this spread for any new deck I get :)
-
-
Did you post your interview with Wildwood? I’m curious how you feel about the deck. I’ve had a copy for a while but I haven’t really connected to it the way I thought I would.
-
Hey! No, I haven’t posted my interview with the Wildwood, or RWS actually. I was getting wary of looking like the only one who posted for a while, lol.
I’ll go ahead and post them though!

Groovy! Thanks for linking. That Mary-El tarot is gorgeous!

LOL – that wasn’t long-winded at all! Welcome to the group! Tarot art has exploded in such a good way in recent years. It seems a lot of artists are bringing more current imagery into it, which is wonderful. I don’t have Wild Unknown, but I’ve seen it and it’s gorgeous! Been reading a lot from The Dreaming Way Tarot lately and having great luck so…[Read more]
Hey Alannah! I know what you mean about the older images not speaking to you – I feel the same way, though I do have a *major* soft spot for the Rider Waite Smith tarot. I really believe there’s a deck for everyone out there somewhere :)
I picked up a mini RWS deck because I wanted to practice with its very specific imagery since it’s what so many modern decks are based on. I also picked up the Housewives Tarot because I loved the snarky tone. There decks for everyone, definitely.
