Please see the discussion thread if you'd like some background about the study group.

 

As a visual start, here are the Tarot de Marseille Conver, the RWS, and the Thoth. You don't have to compare your deck with these, though, if you have another deck in mind. If you'd like to add an image of the card you're discussing that would be great. If not we can google it. You can write about the same deck someone else did.
