I just absolutely love the tarot, and I'm starting to get into it again after three years away.

My favorite is definitely The Haindl Tarot. I'm interested to know.. What's yours?

Hi!

Mine is The Sacred Circle deck! BUt since I live in Brazil, I can't find most decks here. THe one I have is a Rider-Waite, but it's not the one that called out to me?

And I'm getting the Sacred Circle deck as a gift from a friend!!!! Finally my dream's coming through. I just can't wait to actually getting to work with it!

Robin Wood deck is superb, I have used it exclusively for years. I love all the Pagan imagery and that the Minor Arcana have actual images rather than for example, Nine of Cups, a picture of nine cups. Decks that do that rob you, I think. Plus Robin Wood is a very cool Pagan girl, I like her a lot, yet I was using the deck before I met her. Check it out, and her fab art is all over the web, too.

Love,
Carlo

Greetings...

Favorite deck... wow, I have so many; but the ones that I keep reaching for when I do readings for myself or others:

1) Morgan-Greer deck
2) Robin Wood deck
3) Hanson-Roberts deck

In no particular order mind you... I like them all.

As always though, I say that you should learn with one "traditional deck" such as those above or the popular Waite-Rider deck, and then branch off into the other non-traditional decks, until you find the deck that "speaks" to your Inner Ear.

In the Light...

Oh, how interesting! I enjoyed reading through your favorites very much. I must admit I can't choose a favorite, but I will list the ones I have in my order of use:


  • The Hanson-Roberts Tarot deck
  • The Mythic Tarot deck
  • The Lord of the Rings Tarot deck
  • The Arthurian Tarot deck
  • The Vertigo Tarot deck


I would like to have so many tarot decks, it's almost an excessive thing. I like the different interpretations of all the authors and have leaned towards one or the other or a mixture of both, coupled with my own intuitive insights, for a number of years in regards to these decks. I simply find the art and symbolism portrayed on the cards absolutely enlightening and inspiring, and I love to see other artists' interpretations of the same tried and true system.
