Does anyone here use The Tarot of the 78 Doors?

[Chariot]

I've owned a copy of The Tarot of the 78 Doors for quite some time, but never used it.  However, I do take it out every so often and look through it.  I find it intriguing.  
 

After puzzling over my original horrible cheapo copy of the deck for several years (which I bought before I was aware of counterfeit decks), I have finally acquired a genuine Lo Scarabeo deck.  Unlike the counterfeit, which had atrociously bad (unusably rough and sticky) card stock, this one is made to a high standard and can be shuffled and dealt without trouble.  So I'm ready to start.  However, I don't have a booklet with the deck ...I don't know if that would be a good thing or bad thing.   Or even if there is one available.

 

I just found this excellent review of the deck.  https://tarotfans.com/tarot-of-the-78-doors-review/

 

The review has already given me ideas.

 

I know the images in The Tarot of the 78 Doors often differ a LOT from the Rider/Waite/Smith system, but certainly seem to be based on it.  The deck seems to focus on situations that are new to the querent, pathways on offer, or involve decisions the querent must make.  (What if I go through that particular door?)  

 

Just wondering if any of you out there use this deck, and, if so, what initial advice can you give a 'this deck' newbie?
