A unique version of Reading Circle for those who would like to work through their collection of decks, participants choose decks from their collections to work with for the week. Some use one deck, others use two or more. Some combine methods: Tarot, non-tarot (e.g. oracle), playing cards, or any other divinatory method is welcome. All we ask is that you use at least one tarot or oracle deck.

 

No collection is too large or too small. The only rules we have are the Tarot, Tea & Me Rules; Be respectful of one other. Please join us!

  • Please post with your choice of deck(s) for the week
  • Chat away about your deck, how you're finding it (or not), etc., it's all up to you 
  • Participants may either choose to share their readings here in this discussion thread or opt to have their own journal in the Journals Forum and link it here
  • Yet others may even have an offline journal in paper & pencil/pen form

 

Share as often, as much, or as little as you like. You can drop in and out at any time—reality and life permitting. New to tarot? Long time reader? Come on in!

Thank you Fire cat! Hope you're staying safe and cozy! I'm in this week with the Swietlistej Drogi (Tarot of the Radiant Path) paired with Mirrors of the Heart.

Eloquence is a painting of the thoughts.
—Blaise Pascal

 

I've had teachers who were incredibly smart and well educated, yet they did not know how to explain ideas to others. That kind of teaching results in rote learning without understanding. But then I've also had teachers (and writers) who could paint a picture with their words, illustrating the most complex concepts. Those eloquent communicators are a treasure because they offer insight. Openness suggests that the responsibility is not just on the speaker, but also the listener. As Elena Brower expresses, "Asking more questions and practicing sitting quietly strips certainty away and allows a freshness to emerge, a bright curiosity. Concepts and narratives can fall away, we can venture out beyond self and other, beyond yes and no, dead and alive, right and wrong."

Good Morning! After cold nights with - 36Centigrade we are emerging from mountains of snow. 

My deck of the week is aptly named "the Winterseer", created by Siolo Thompson.

Hi all!  Hope everybody is staying warm and safe!  This week for me will be Fairy Tale Fortune Cards, a fun lenormand from Cico Books.  It has large cards with bright, graphic illustrations and interps on the cards (by Liz Dean).  The book has a tale for each card.  (I forgot all about the tales aspect even though it’s in the title . . .)  This is another lenormand I had for years before I really knew what lenormand is (copyright 2012). 

 

The book has, along with some simple ones, a spread called “The Master Method,” that uses all the cards and has a specific position meaning for each of the 36 spread positions, but you only read the 8 cards (and positions?) surrounding the significator (Woman or Man, or Child maybe?).  I’m definitely going to give that a try later this week!

 

I’m feeling overwhelmed these days, so maybe this deck is the remedy by being as simple or complex as I want it to be.  Let’s give it a whirl with a short interview!

 

Monday1.thumb.jpg.85edc46c6390d2cd1e4cb36648d78137.jpg

 

What is your strength?  Snake

It is good at pointing out deception and betrayal!

 

Your weakness?  Fox

It focuses too much on deception and betrayal!  Because fox can also mean cleverness and being good at one’s work.

 

What can you teach me?  Letter

It can teach me to pay closer attention to my readings.

 

What will be the outcome of our work together?  Heart

Even with the negative cards, I’ll love the deck and want to keep it near me.

 

Ok then!  We’ll see!

I´m in with Hanson - Roberts.

 

Monday card was: The Sun.☀️

 

A white horse, a happy baby, sunflowers and a smiling sun, what can be wrong?

 

Pain in the whole body, freezing cold wind, exhausted and I had to go out!

 

I got everything that I needed to do done, so I´m happy!😄

Posted

Tuesdays card: 7 of Pentacles.

 

A very tired man is leaning his body on a hoe. But I think he´s happy about what he has done for the day.

 

My thoughts goes back to yesterday when I was out. I´m very tired today, my whole body is in pain, but are happy for what I manage to do yesterday.

That means that I can rest today and enjoy in the future what I did.

Wednesdays card: 4 of Wands/ Rods.

 

Two girls with flowers in their hands and a garland of flowers hanging over their heads, and a beautiful white castle in the background.

 

Maybe something positive will happen, but not today!

Thursday card was: Page of Swords.

 

It says in LWB that it´s a boy but the card shows a girl in my eyes. Never mind!

She/he stands outside with the sword ready to strike, but at what? Can´t see anything.

It looks like winter and there is a big grey cloud over her/his head.

 

Grey thoughts about the day? Waiting for something to happend?

 

For me it was a calm day and I slept most of it!
