I Like Tarot Card Artwork That Allows Me To Engage With The Depiction.
Tarot is an active, not a passive interaction. Each card in a spread tells a story — and how that story unfolds is in relation to the other cards selected. That’s why I like artwork that feeds my eye, mind, body, and soul. There is truly something going on when you are in tune with your Tarot deck. It is a beautiful thing.
Since I started my Tarot Deck Collection, I have maybe three that I don’t especially like and am not using. There is actually nothing wrong with those decks other than there are others I prefer. And, now that I think about those three, I may revisit them and find the value they do have to offer. I have found that over the years my tastes have changed and my understanding of Tarot has grown. It did seem to take me a long time to understand the different suits and how those cards worked in with my keyword approach — it just seemed as though I was beating my head against a wall trying to make sense of Tarot. Then, I watched some videos, dug out my old Rider Tarot Deck, and really watched, listened, and interacted. That was the key for me — sitting quietly.
As with so many things, it is important to keep studying, practicing, and learning. Also seeing what others are doing and saying. Seeing what is new and available and the thoughts and feelings others have about a particular Tarot Deck. Also, learning about the Tarot Deck Collections of others — so many times I have not heard of the majority of Tarot Decks some have in their collection — am I tempted to get them? Sometimes, but not always.
