she is just getting it set up, but it covers the three basic type of decks, plus hers which is a hybrid of the three. 

 

We get so many queries about should I do the thoth, how hard is the marseille, is the RWS good to start with...why not get familiar with all three! One of my favorite books was set  up like this and was one of my most valuable learning tools at different stages of my journey. 

 

I'm continually impressed at how much this woman offers to the community, freely.

She's amazing, isn't she? Very, very generous. There's Oracle bone cards, supplementary material to her books, a couple of meditations.

 

Thanks for sharing the link. I'll check it out. If she's teaching, it will be *good*.

This looks fantastic. Thanks for sharing!

 

Do you happen to know the name of the book you had that used this method, @AJ-ish/Sharyn? I was thinking of getting a Marseille and Thoth deck and doing this myself, but have so far decided against it as I'm not actually that interested in all the esoteric stuff or even divination. I think it might be intriguing, nonetheless. Some day, perhaps. 😊

sorry, over the past four years I've dispersed all my paper books, I can't read them anymore. and my mind is blank, although I 'think' it had three authors 😉 

I watched the first installment this morning, of the Aces, interesting to see how she views the differences between the three types of decks. Which is as it should be to my way of thinking. 

 

I've been working with the University Books printing of the RWS this week, and dipping into A.E. Waite's original keywords. I haven't used this deck for maybe 10 years, and found myself quite surprised at how far from his original 'guidelines' I've drifted. Aces always being benign for instance.
