Morning all

[Dr_T]

Well it’s currently morning in New Zealand 🙂 

 

I’m a philosopher (I did my doctorate in Ethics) and my interest in Tarot is primarily the philosophy behind the cards (those ‘deep dive’ into a single card are fascinating!).

 

I’n also (unsurprisingly) interested in the ethics of Tarot reading (I’ve noted a lot of sites seem to confuse ethics with a codified set of rules)

 

looking forward to some interesting discussions and hoping my slant adds something to the forums.

Hello @Dr_T welcome to the TT&M Family

[Dr_T]

Why thank you @joy … have enjoyed the site for ages 😊 and just seemed ‘time’ to dip my toes into the forum waters.

@DanielJUK … I’ve even launched a forum post (on ethics) … a topic known to cause spontaneous combustion 🤣

Interesting.. 

Do you use the tarot as mediation? 

Or when you read with the tarot do you use a more philosphy spread? 

 

Do you prefer a scholarly work  or a more barbones book. 

 

And what are some of your fav decks 

Example the jungian ?

[Dr_T]

Scholarly  (usually but not always)

 

fav decks, hmmm, The Steampunk (Barabara Moore), Tarot Z, Divine Twilight, love the fool from Davide Corsi’s TV Series deck.

 

I prefer a spread where the context/position of each card is well defined (the content of card x here is….)

Hi Dr_T!

 

I always find it interesting to have people who enjoy tarot/oracles for reasons other than divination! It helps broaden our horizons and enrich our discussions.

Welcome to the forum! 😉
