When choosing a tarot deck to purchase, I have been known to be a tad bit picky. There are a few cards that simply have to sing to me before I can give them a home. These cards hold a little bit of special magic to me and so if a deck doesn’t depict them just right then I may be turned off the deck altogether. I have made exceptions in the past for other cards, however it’s not that often.
The Moon has to have a bit of mystery to it with the moon itself being the brightest thing you see, either visually or intuitively.
The Magician has to have a certain charm and cleverness about him. He has to seem like he knows what he is doing! It is a card that I’ve been compared to by a favorite reader of mine so it holds a special place in my heart.
The Sun has to bring a smile to my face and make me feel like there is warmth and brightness within it.
The Page of Cups is important since it’s the card I’ve used as a signifier for many years now. It’s essentially me in essence, so it has to depict what I feel I am. I’m the cat that is chatting it up with a fish, I am the sea lion surfing in the waves, I am the little baby swan imagining my shadow to be more beautiful than what it simply is.
If I can’t get a feeling off a card, it’s going to be very hard to read with it in the long run. This is why finding those key cards is so important to me.
What card is important to you? Why?
I so understand everything you’re feeling I feel the same way. I have a Tarot card collection and I still always go to my very old over used Ryder’s deck. They just resonate with me.
Good job on your blog! Keep up the good work.
