Scarlet Woodland Posted April 14, 2018 Posted April 14, 2018 Thanks for the new thread VG :) I'll be working withthe pocket Tabula Mundi Tarot (just arrived this morning, wheeeee!) and the Everyday Enchantment again. Scarlet Woodland - Mini Tabula Mundi + Everyday Enchantment Tarot
VGimlet Posted April 14, 2018 Author Posted April 14, 2018 VGimlet - Tattoo Tarot (8 Coins) I have quite a few tattoo decks, enough to be a sub-genre in my collection I think. I do like the style, and it shuffles well. :P I'll be using the Everyday Tarot in the next 2-3 weeks, I've been looking forward to it for a couple years. Her Waking the Wild Spirit deck is a favorite of mine.
Bodhiseed Posted April 14, 2018 Posted April 14, 2018 I'm in with the Hadar Marseille paired with Greek Runes; thank you, VG! :)
Bookworm Posted April 14, 2018 Posted April 14, 2018 I'd like to join in this week. I have missed doing this. I'll be using my Japardize. Thanks for doing this, VG! <3
AJ-ish/Sharyn Posted April 14, 2018 Posted April 14, 2018 Matthews and Kingham's Cathar Tarot. Waaaaaaa, the print on the book is so small I can't read it. Interesting part of history.
Queen of Nothing Posted April 14, 2018 Posted April 14, 2018 I'm finally ready to come back. I had to take a break from tarot for a couple of months and now I'm ready to dive back in. Going through my decks, I think its time to focus on some of my earlier acquisitions. Queen of Nothing- Lumina Tarot
Bodhiseed Posted April 15, 2018 Posted April 15, 2018 This week I'll be using Le Veritable Tarot de Marseille, restored and reconstructed by Kris Hadar and published by Mortagne. Lee Bursten's The Marseille Tarot Companion will be a resource for reading with this deck. The oracle I'll be using is one I created myself called the Greek Alphabet Runes. AlaskaLaserMaid on Etsy burned the designs on cedar tiles for me. Today's draws are Temperance and 'Zeta:' Temperance was a common subject in medieval and Renaissance art. Her title and action symbolize the practice of mixing water with wine to temper the wine's effect. This card is also connected to the Greek theory of the four humors or temperaments; it was believed that an imbalance of these liquids in the human body caused illness. Temperance offers the encouragement to avoid extremes, physically or psychologically, which will result in a more balanced mind and body. Zeta is a letter that has been used to represent vorticity, the measure of rotation in fluid or air as seen in whirlpools and tornadoes. It cautions us not to get caught up in the kind of busyness or mental rumination that results in 'spinning our wheels.' These two draws are not about restriction so much as being able to enjoy life without experiencing the side effects that extremes cause.
VGimlet Posted April 15, 2018 Author Posted April 15, 2018 Welcome back Queen of Nothing and Bookworm! Tattoo Tarot - kind of pretty, but also a bit impenetrable. Not for beginners, for sure.
Rose Lalonde Posted April 15, 2018 Posted April 15, 2018 ...The oracle I'll be using is one I created myself called the Greek Alphabet Runes. AlaskaLaserMaid on Etsy burned the designs on cedar tiles for me. What a great idea, Bodhiseed[/member] Rose Lalonde - Asherah Thanks, VG!
Page of Ghosts Posted April 16, 2018 Posted April 16, 2018 I haven't posted in one of these threads for a while but I've been at it with the Circo lately. Now I feel like changing it up again so I wanna use my brand new Shadowscapes Tarot this week :)) Page of Ghosts - Shadowscapes Tarot

Thanks Rose. :) Alaska Lasermaid has helped me create 3 self-made oracles for very reasonable prices!
Scarlet Woodland Posted April 16, 2018 Posted April 16, 2018 Actually, I think I might come back to the Everyday Enchantment when I have time off work in a couple weeks (can tell it'll get neglected this week). Going to be awkward and switch it out as the Rosetta is calling me: Scarlet Woodland - Rosetta Papyrus + Mini Tabula Mundi Ah, that feels better. Thanks VG :)
