Deck Book
Suggestions for tarot deck/book?
Hi, im interested in learning how to read Tarot Cards. Any suggestions for a good starter pack incl. book and deck? Ive read that you're supposed to look around and feel for decks however all the shops ive visited have them packaged and you are not allowed to open them, just look at the packaging basically. Thank you!
Ooh goody, a question I can answer really well!
Most of the modern tarot decks you will find in the shops, be they Vampires or Clowns are based on the "Rider-Waite" deck, also published as the "Universal Waite" which is the same but shaded a little better. It was drawn by Pamela Colman Smith in 1909 (her story comes with the little booklet in the box). The symbolism is much older, and you'll also find different renderings of the cards (my "death" card is on a horse, not reaping in a field as is common).
I cannot reccomend any "starter packs" because most tarot readers will tell you first to find Your Own meanings, then to seek out a book that works for you. I use Amber Jayanti's "Living the Tarot", which covers the major cards in detail, one by one and without any wishy washy fluffy stuff!
US games systems inc are one of the bigger tarot publishers, and also make the Tarot games as well. If you like the Lord of the Rings, the artist Peter Pracownick has designed a wonderful deck/game that really works as a divination tool. Each character is perfectly selected to match each card, and makes it a joy to read for someone! So very pretty t
