Amberjune Posted August 27, 2021 Posted August 27, 2021 Thank you for the new thread, VG. I'll be working with the Golden Girls Tarot, yippie, and the Wicca Deck, an oldie I haven't used in a long time. Really looking forward to spending time with these two decks! Wishing everyone a wonderful week ahead. Weather again unstable for the weekend => a reading weekend. I hope fall will bring along some hiking weather.

vulprix Posted August 27, 2021 Posted August 27, 2021 Happy September everyone 🙂 Will be using the Otherkin Tarot this coming week!
ballerina Posted August 27, 2021 Posted August 27, 2021 I'm going to be using animal and plant cards that come in a set with a book about the Celts and Druids by Gerry Maguire Thompson. It's part of a series of different card divination systems. I've had it for years but never really looked at it. The book is beautiful quality but the cards are crap - just thick paper. They are beautifully illustrated /coloured though. Have a great week everyone!
Mi-Shell Posted August 28, 2021 Posted August 28, 2021 Hi everyone 🙂 This week I will use my Herbcrafter's Tarot🪴🌿🍃
VGimlet Posted August 29, 2021 Author Posted August 29, 2021 (edited) I was saved from having to climb the "more later" mountain by the just-arrived Tarot of Oppositions. Whew! Edited August 29, 2021 by VGimlet
Bodhiseed Posted August 29, 2021 Posted August 29, 2021 This week I'll be using the Hoi Polloi Tarot published by Hoi Polloi Inc. The oracle I'll also use is the I Ching Pack created by Richard Gill and Anthony Clark, and published by Thorsons. Today's cards are the Page of Pentacles and Hexagram 42: One learns from books and example only that certain things can be done. Actual learning requires that you do those things. – Frank Herbert The Page of Pentacles is often known as the student; it's not that he is forced to learn, it's that he has a great enthusiasm for it. We are lucky in today's world that we have so many options besides formal studies - from books to podcasts to online classes. We can dig in and enjoy whatever inspires or excites us. Yet this Page goes beyond surface learning by practicing and applying the knowledge he's gained. He wants more than a brain full of data, he wants a full life too. The 42nd Hexagram has been assigned the keyword 'expansion.' The Page is well on his way with his studies, but like the man shooing away the birds from the grain, he needs to be wary of distractions. However, he might also expand his perspective by moving beyond the teachers and books he prefers. As Marvin Minsky put it, "You don’t understand anything until you learn it more than one way."

Thank you, VGimlet! No, thankfully no Ida here! And now it is sunny again and I'm about to go on a day hike. Take care
