kalamazoo Posted March 4, 2021 Posted March 4, 2021 Hi there, just wanting to introduce myself as a newcomer to this forum. I'm based in Aotearoa-New Zealand. Ive had a hiatus from tarot, and getting back in to it.As I picked up my decks purchased in the 90's (yes that long ago)... namely the Voyager and Thoth decks, I realised I was wanting something more modern or more appealing to me visually. Ive ended up with The Etheral Visions (art nouveau) deck and then at the opposite end of the spectrum the New Era Elements Tarot. Ive also signed up for a preorder on a reprint of the Moonchild Tarot deck. Id love to hear from anyone using these decks with any special insights, thoughts or comments you wish to share. At this point I'm just focusing on reading/and exploring for personal insight - but I used to read for people and I'd like to get back to doing that at some point when Im feeling more confident with my new decks.

Hi! Welcome to the forum! I've moved your post into the introductions section where it fits best! It's lovely to meet you 😊
TheFeeLion Posted March 4, 2021 Posted March 4, 2021 Welcome @kalamazoo! Yay! A fellow Kiwi! 😁 I've had Ethereal Visions on my wishlist for a while now, it's such a beautiful deck 😊 the creator Matt Hughes actually has a Kickstarter campaign running at the moment too (7 days to go). He's called it The Luna Tarot and it's a reimagining of Ethereal Visions but with more diversity and more colour (and silver foiling 😁) If you want to get back into the swing of doing readings you could give one of the reading circles a go. I think sign ups for most of them are still open too 😊
ashtoreth Posted March 5, 2021 Posted March 5, 2021 Welcome! How lovely to live in NZ--a place untouched by this horrible pandemic. You are very lucky indeed ❤️ My story is similar--I took something of a hiatus from the tarot for something like 7 years and I came back on the forum so I had company while I reacquainted with my deck. This place is great! I've had about 3 wooden chests full of decks but I just looked up the Moonchild tarot and I feel like none of the ones I own come close aesthetically! I do have some beautiful decks mind, but this one just calls out to me! I'm back to reading for people and I am really enjoying being back at it!
