    Maybe someone has mentioned it before but recently while doing some research on a German deck I came across an amazing German language deck database with complete scans for 170 different decks. there's a page for each card showing that card for all 170 decks on the same page, and if you click any individual image it takes you to a page with only that image where you can click right or left to see the next or previous card in the same deck, including decent resolution scans for all 78 cards in every deck. this seems incredibly useful for researching various decks or comparing corresponding artwork across many decks. very cool! http://www.albideuter.de/html/narr…

    I got my first RWS Deck back in 1996 and while I still have the cards (wrapped in dark silk and kept in a wooden box), I have lost the original box and LWB. I have the miniature version included in the Universal Waite miniature deck in a tin and was wondering if it is the same. I've got a copy of 'The Key to the Tarot' by Waite with a forward by Liz Greene and can see the texts are derived from the same source. Are the original versions likely to be online to be online somewhere? The reason I want it is to do a video recap of my introduction to the cards.

    I'm a big fan of the art on these cards. This is an exclusive project for a TV series and is not for sale. I'm curious to know if anyone knows of any similar deck that I can buy. thanks in advance!

    This may not be the best place for this, but wasn't sure which forum to use. I am very much a beginner, but have started doing a daily tarot card pull to work and learn the card I pull. I have RWS deck. Today I pulled the Tower and was sitting in the energy of it. I believe the the astrological planet for the Tower is Mars, but when sitting with the energy of it. I thought of Mars conjunct Uranus. This conjunction can lead to an explosion - shift in identity. Just curious if anyone else has made that association or if I am way off.

    Hello, I am new to the forum so I am not sure if there is another part of the forum that is much more fitting to post this thread: please bear with me. For a while now, I have been looking for a particular tarot deck. As the title implies I am looking for the Lovers' Tarot by Jane Lyle. I have looked online as to where I could possibly purchase the deck but to no avail; I could not find a seller. The question I have now is: Is this deck no longer in print? Any information on this deck, or a definitive answer to this question, is greatly appreciated. Blessings and best wishes to you all.

    Was hoping for some recommendations for a ‘PAM A’ RWS Deck, preferably one of the later (but authentic) reprints. As a novice, I was duped into buying the ‘Original Rider Waite Tarot Deck’, believing it to be an authentic reproduction. ps. Which version is the ‘Original Rider Waite Tarot Deck’? The colours are so dark!

    Hello everyone, I've been contemplating on doing this for some time now but I did a spread on the love spell Im intending to do later today. I got the Ace of Cups as a lone card with the Hermit as the shadow card. I shuffled again and got the Tower, Ace of Pentacles and Three of Wands. The 10 of Swords is the shadow card this time. Will the love spell work then quickly crash?

    I have an RWS checklist. Is that silly? - No copyright - Liveable colors - Shuffles well - Doesn't sanitize the details - Not a computer typeface - Pixie's sig present I can only think of one currently-available (non-vintage) deck that checks each box: The Original Tarot by Da Brigh. The Centinneal gets a lot of love, but I find the colors too dark, and it has a copyright. I am currently rocking the Premium Tarot von A.E. Waite from AGM... but it doesn't check box 5: Typeface.

    Greetings, I made a promise to show a pic of the back of the German pressing of the RWS premium edition, and I cannot locate that chat. So Here's a fresh post and I hope all who desire to see it find the path. My personal deck is on the left, it is the Centennial edition, standard size. On the right is also a standard, and it is my brand new from across-the-pond A.E. Waite Premium copy, which will be for clients only. Quite a difference, isn't there? Which do you prefer?

    here are my interpretations and what it means to me: 1. 7 of swords meaning: stealing my experience: I asked what will my day be like and got 7 of swords, i found out that my sister took the last piece of my chocolate 2. 3 of cups meaning: Having fun, celebrating my experience: my cousins and I called (and it was the 3 of us) we were having fun and laughing the whole time. 3. the sun meaning: usually always means positive outcomes my experience: I asked if "he" will message me back and got this card along with other cards that i don't remember and he did message me back 4. The star meaning: hope, wishful thinking …

    Hi everyone, I almost never buy decks - in 40 or so years of reading tarot, I've managed to accumulate six decks in total. For years I read just the Sacred Rose, had a brief foray into the Thoth, but returned to the Rose; and then, three years ago, I bought and fell in love with the Radiant Wise Spirit, which I've been reading ever since. It's a wonderfully vibrant, well-made, sturdy, borderless deck that conveys with very high faithfulness Pamela's original drawings. A couple of weeks ago I discovered the Golden Art Nouveau Tarot, and thought it was beautiful. So, completely on impulse, I bought it, and it arrived today. I'll post so…

    Hey all. I'm new here. I've been reading tarots for a few years now. I'm currently in a relationship crisis...I won't go into details but I've been turning to tarot for guidance. Something about reading tarots for yourself while you're going through a difficult time... it makes you question the cards yourself and it is hard to separate myself from the situation to read the cards as they are. Wondering if anyone has further insight on this read? I asked: HOW will *name* and I be together again? The cards that flew from the deck are: 2 of cups followed by The Magician At the bottom of the deck: King of pentacles (interestingly the person I'm askin…

    Hey. I am unexperienced tarot reader for now, and last rime I was doing a tarot reading for myself. So to give a little of a context, I have a crush and he gave me signals that he liked me, but we did not had a lot of opportunities to meet often. Now I dont see him at all and I tried manifesting him, sadly, unsuccsesfully (yet😉). I asked my tarot cards why my manifestations are not coming true and the answer was queen of wands. I dont understand how to interprent it. Can someone explain it to me?

    I'm not as experienced with Tarot but very interested to learn. I've tried to do a reading with three cards asking of someone will contact me in one week. The cards I got were Judgment, Knight of Wands, and Chariot. I asked the cards what action is he going to take with Chariot and got Ace of Wands. Will he contact me in one week? I personally would read this as a yes but not too sure. The contact would be by phone or text message. Any help and explanation would be appreciated. Answer

    I have always loved tarot cards and having my tarot read, but never practised it myself until recently and wow, I have not been disappointed. My readings have been so incredibly accurate and I am enjoying every minute of it. I am creating a guidebook for myself with meanings and keywords. Another thing I would like to learn is letters that may appear in the shapes on each card. The psychic I see as well as a workmate practising tarot can both easily see letters in each of the cards. So for example, on The Fool card, I can see the letter "C" in his right arm and the letter "A" with his legs/the mountain. I was wondering if anyone ha…

    I came across an explanation of the connection between the man, the woman and the angel as a link between conscious - subconscious and divine. Man (consciousness) looks at woman (subconsciousness) who looks at the angel (the divine). Maybe this is common knowledge and I'm rediscovering fire here, but I thought it was really interesting. Here's a more detailed video on the subject (From 7:40 if you don't want to watch the whole thing)
