Hello everyone

[Yaroslav]

Hello everyone,

I first became interested in Tarot many years ago, but abandoned the study. Now I've picked it up again and I hope to discuss it with like-minded people. At the moment I have seven decks: a TdM, the Book of Thoth, two RWS decks, a regular and a pocket-size edition (my first deck), two RWS-inspired decks, the Everyday Tarot and the Dark Mansion Tarot, and finally the Deviant Moon Tarot (unfortunately a poor quality Chinese copy that I got on eBay).

My go-to deck is RWS, although I love the playful artwork of the Dark Mansion Tarot, and I find it also gives very good readings.

I've started a blog to put down some of my thoughts about the cards; I don't know if the rules of this forum allow me to post a link to it.

Welcome Yaroslav. You've come to the right place to find like-minded people, in my opinion. 😃 I also have the Dark Mansion Tarot and love the style of artwork.

Hello Yaroslav! I saw your post in Playing Cards first. As a playing cards fan, I was curious to "meet" you. 🙂 You have a nice range of cards there. RWS is my go-to as well, but I enjoy working with TdM and the Book of Thoth. Shame about your Deviant Moon. I hated it at first, until one day I saw pictures of the borderless edition and the scales fell from my eyes, LOL! Went straight out and bought a copy.

Thank you Ziev,

When my Dark Mansion deck arrived, it came with a "coming soon" card which makes me hopeful about further work from taroteca-studio.

 

Hi Judy,

I find the Deviant Moon designs intriguing, quite unlike any other cards I've seen. I too have seen pictures of the borderless edition and the artwork seems to leap off the cards.

For the moment, though, I'll stick with the decks I have. I fear having too many might muddy the waters, so to speak.

Welcome to the forum @Yaroslav 😀 I love the Dark Mansion Tarot, it's so whimsical and fun! Glad you have found our community!

 

About posting your blog link, we don't allow it in the posts because it breaks the self promotion rule of the forum. If everyone posted their own links in the posts, it would make the actual text of discussions hard to read and we want to keep it clear and free of promotion in most areas 🤣. If you get to 5 posts on the forum, more of the forum opens up to you and you are welcome to post your blog link in your signature in your account settings. You have to get to 5 posts for it to appear. Also you are welcome to promote your blog in our self-promotion area over here at 5 posts 🙂 So there are other options where you can post it in future 🙂

Thank you Daniel,

I'm glad to have found this community, too 🙂

Welcome to the forum! 
 

I love the Deviant Moon - it’s one of my best reading decks.

Thank you everyone for the very warm welcome 😊

I have been eyeing the Dark Mansions Tarot for some time now.. One day I´ll probably have to get a copy, too. 🙈

Welcome Yaroslav 😊

Welcome! I have been considering the dark mansion tarot, i probably will buy as a small christmas gift for myself haha Love to see new people here!

[Yaroslav]

@Hemera @milanna I very much like the Dark Mansion deck. It's high quality cardstock, it comes in a nicely desgned box, and the images speak for themselves. If you get it, I hope you enjoy it as much as I do
