All Activity

A bit of flexibility would make this place a lot more appealing. Time enough to mod if anyone complains - which as far as I know nobody has. But the PM discussion is now set up. Anyone who wants to joins us - PM me.

I have a solution for this problem. We will start a group PM thread for everyone who have participated in this discussion, and there we can carry on the conversation freely, discussing all sorts of tv series and what not 😊 It will be arranged shortly! And now the thread can return to revolve around the Cooper & Fry series only 🙂

It was discussed a very long time ago to move the Catter Area to the subscriber area. Why having rules if we start bending then as we please? Where do we draw the line? You see @gregory that would make our work as mods even more difficult. Thanks for your understand and cooperation.

Hello @sophie_moon welcome to the TT&M Family

Hello @Scozz welcome to the TT&M Family

In which case it's dead in the water till next year. Shame. You know we can't do that in the off-topic section and keep all the posters in this thread. One way to keep as many people as possible enjoying the forum is to allow a bit of leeway; more people might be encouraged to subscribe.

Unfortunately, as per the rules, the free areas of the forum are for tarot and divination discussion. That's the reason for the community. It seems fair to fund the tarot community by having the off-topic discussions behind a paywall. We can make a thread discussing fave detective series in the off-topic section. Let's get this thread back to the topic in hand

I was enjoying this thread as it stands.

I think it would be lovely if the discussion around favorite detective series could continue on somehow, I got really nostalgic seeing what Geoxena wrote and was going to chime in!

I think rigorous modding for often has the unwanted effect of killing a thread.... and as the thread you suggest is in subscriber only, it rules out people who might have valuable insights here as it progresses; we do get a new season next year,

When the cards became "Tarot" as we know it now - they were deliberately designed for this purpose: "Etteilla (born Jean-Baptiste Alliette, 1738–1791) was a pioneering French occultist who became occultist who became the first professional tarot reader in history to make a living through card divination. His pseudonym is simply his actual surname, Alliette, spelled backward. Key Contributions to Tarot First Divination Deck: He designed and released one of the earliest specialized tarot decks tailored specifically for occult and divinatory purposes rather than gaming. Spreads and Reversals: He originated systematic card layouts (spreads) and introduced distinct meanings for reversed (upside-down) cards. Astrological Links: He connected the tarot to astrology, the four elements, and ancient Egyptian philosophy (believing the cards originated as the mythical Book of Thoth). Published Guides: He wrote popular instructional manuals explaining how to read cartomancy and tarot, helping popularize the practice for the general public." Welcome!

Ad. infinitum. Tarot can be as adaptable and amazing as you like & wish to believe 🙃.

I think that previously it was only available on my laptop, not on the mobile.

Thanks DanielJUK, I can't wait to dig into the content!

Thanks Raggydoll, it's great to meet you too!

Welcome! It’s lovely to meet you!

I'm a 49 yr old Tarot beginner who's keen on learning the ropes and understadning this space. I've come at this sideways and I'm trying to understand the practice properly. I'm here to learn mostly about reading methods, alternative spreads, card and spread meaning/intention. I have bought the New Earth Tarot deck and handbook from Kate Silver (round cards) which I'm truely loving. I'm doing a rough 3 card spread at the start of eack week atm and recording these in a log. Thanks in advance for any help anyone can offer me. I'm really glad to be here. Cheers, Corey

Before the upgrade, it was possible to choose a specific theme where you then could choose color for the top and bottom of the website. For me, TT&M is purple/violet, and I miss my color every day 😳 Is it possible to get this back? It's probably a plugin in Invision that needs to be updated. I don't remember which theme that did this, whether it was Uniform, Chameleon or Vanilla.

You guys gotta keep me on my toes 😂 Will sort and upload any remaining decks over the next few days in the library. Adding any new or missing decks is always welcomed....

@DanielJUK Thanks for the tip, will definitely try it. I didn't put a space in the username, I used underscore. I tried it on my computer and my phone. A mystery. Anyway happy that I finally did it. 😀

I simply cannot believe that the tarot cards were "created" for any one purpose. Servitors, chaos magic or any other. One individual may have created one deck for that purpose - but not the whole shebang. As Misterei says:

@Marina I've changed my mind about Water now that I've studied it closer.

We are moving off-topic here, this section is for tarot in media and we are talking in this thread about the tarot featured in "Cooper & Fry". We can discuss all our fave TV shows in the off-topic section Chatter Room (note: this is a subscriber area) There is an ongoing thread there about what TV shows are you currently watching?

Seventy-Eight Degrees of Wisdom by Rachel Pollack - This is my first tarot book, so I could be a bit biased. It opened my mind about how to read and understand tarot. It is beginner friendly. Mary K Greer books are super. I used the workbook when I started to study the cards. The book on reversal is a must. Tarot Symbolism by Robert V. O'Neill - I read it several years ago. It is informative and more on the academic side. I will re-read it again. (English is not my mother tongue, so sometimes a bit difficult for me to understand). Although some books have ebook version, I still prefer paperback.
