Talking about decks?
I am currently using Emily Carding's Tarot of the Sidhe as my working deck.

I will have to do a study on the :TdM, I have an easier time reading with a poker deck. I should get Enrique to give us a study on it, he know more about TdM, I think than anyone.
Do you find it easy to read with?

Re: Talking about decks?
I find the pips less intrusive than the illustrations at times, yes. Also, the more I learn about the decans, the less I understand how the GD came up with their meanings. (I sometime put decans meanings with the TdM pips--Iknow shame on me!). I don't get how 5 of Cups is so negative, for instance. It's Mars in Scorpio FFS. Or how 3 of Wands is so positive--it's Venus in Aries (detriment). And why is Mars in Gemini (10 of Swords) negative? It really boggles the mind. I might be getting off topic here. Reading pips is much more free-flow-y

Technically, it's not off topic. Things like THAT are the point of this forum. Too many people aren't on Facebook anymore, and I don't even want to be there but for my local shop traffic. So, this seemed the best thing to work on during the Pandemic!

I love Ciro's work. I don't have the gilded myself.

Re: Talking about decks?
What am I using these days...
TdM (either Grimaud or Trionfi Della Luna (Patrick Valenza), C.H. Thoth, and Lennys (blue owl mostly).
I've developed an allergy towards fully illustrated decks, and the WCS causes heart palpitations.

Today I'll be reading my Tarot Horoscopes with the Revelations deck.
I'd be very concerned if cards were giving me heart palpitations, though, dude!
