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! I'm in with the Tarot of the Sidhe paired with the Green Man Tree Oracle.

Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn. 
— Benjamin Franklin


This Elder/Hierophant invites us to have a seat and learn - not simply information and knowledge, but wisdom. Information consists of organized facts (the 'what'), knowledge is the ability to interpret and apply those facts (the 'how'), and wisdom is the insightful, ethical application of that knowledge (the 'why' and 'when'). Information can be a dangerous thing if not rightly used; wise teachers understand this and want us to grasp it too. White Poplars (Eadha) are often referred to as the ‘whispering’ or ‘talking’ trees. Their long, flattened leaf stalks grow in such a way as to make a noise with every breeze that passes. Matthews describes it as animated - endowed with life, movement, or spirit, typically describing lively, vigorous, or energetic behavior. There are those who teach for power or a paycheck and those who teach because they are passionate about what they want to share. May we all find mentors of the latter variety!
