Dude has 2 dog beds, my bed, guest room bed, and 2 couches to choose from.
Yet he picks the cold hard floor, snuggled up with the cold hard wall. Where is your Golden’s favorite nap spot?
I was accused, by a civilian woman I’ve never met before, of stolen valor.
Her reason was because I have a USMC tattoo on my arm, but I “don’t look like a Marine”. A complete stranger literally took the time and energy to walk across a parking lot to me to tell me this.
So I guess my question is: what does a Marine look like?
Pic added to prove that I do, in fact, look like a Marine and wanted to show off my cute puppy who had to witness the interaction, poor guy.
How cool for him to come out with a numerology deck; I love it so far! The guidebook is an awesome mess, it’s great. Anyone else have the Cerulean Oracle?
I hope it’s okay to share this here, but if it’s deleted that’s cool too; i’m not very good at Reddit, but I’m learning.
I just watched the Tarology documentary on YouTube featuring well known Marseille reader Enrique Enriquez and it TOTALLY changed the way I look at tarot, particularly when it comes to RWS v TdM and secular vs metaphysical or mystical.
I thought it was so cool; at about 16 minutes in, Enrique describes things I’ve always thought: that the myths and misconceptions about tarot are “nonsense”, as he puts it. They’re not magic, just cards with pictures on them.
And then he goes on to blow minds with incredible insight in his readings!
I thought I’d share with this group because I just think it’s a great documentary, Enrique is a great reader, and a lot of the messaging was right up our alley. He makes Tarot de Marseille so accessible for those of us who prefer secular approaches.
(I don’t know if it’s okay to link, so I’m not gonna just in case it’s against the rules, but it’s YouTube, Tarology, and it’s about an hour long). Has anyone else seen it?
Finally got my first Minchiate deck (and first deck from Il Meneghello); it’s gorgeous!!
I’ll be holed up at home all weekend learning how to use it lol
Very interesting concept, incredible artwork, and really well executed guidebook! I think this deck works great in spreads or line readings on its own and could be a great addition or clarification as part of a tarot spread.
I’m not sure if I used the right flair for this. Or if this is even okay to share here, please delete if not! Sorry ahead of time, I never know what I’m doing on reddit.
I just thought this was so interesting and wondered if you guys would be interested, too: Harvard is offering a free course, via edX, called “Omens, Oracles, and Prophecies”.
It’s taught by Harvard astrophysicist, Alyssa Goodman, along with practitioners and Harvard faculty.
I signed up and it’s pretty interesting so far! All sorts of divination methods are discussed.
Totally free, unless you want a certificate (which is $99), and self-paced, online.
Hope this was okay to share here and I hope everyone’s having a great day
Codex by Daniel Martin Diaz is back in stock!
Sadly, I don’t speak Italian - I will learn! - so I figured I was probably missing something when I saw the title of this deck.
I thought I better reach out to the seller to be sure about what I was getting.
lol it was so kind and patient of the seller to explain to me in English. I got a kick out of it and thought you guys might, too. 🙃
Y’all I had such a toxic negative experience in another tarot sub, that I had to run straight to my favorite subs, this one and r/TarotdeMarseille. These communities are so great and you guys are all so kind, helpful, and supportive.
So thank you for that. And thanks to the mods for creating and holding a welcoming space.
Also, I want to express my gratitude for all of the creators who share their decks here. I wouldn’t have the courage to do that, I’m always so proud of all of you, and just blown away by your work.
Thank you for continuing to post your new creations and your art. I’m a collector and I have no problems spending money to support artists, even when it’s a deck I might not normally buy or use.
So please keep up the good, brave, and important work! I’ll keep purchasing and supporting. I feel so lucky to have found this sub and all of you.
*eta: just bought Aorathian Anti-Oracle after the artist shared it on Reddit, even though I don’t usually use Oracle decks simply because it’s cool, but mostly because the artist is such a kind person.
I was prepared to pay a couple hundred ‘cause I assumed shipping to me in PNW, US would be expensive, but shipping is cheap!
I just came here to post a thank you. This sub is consistently educating, interesting, inspiring, informative, and full of great people.
I recently had a disappointing experience in another tarot sub and came running straight here to hangout with you guys. Helped me shake off the negative energy from the bad experience because the energy here is so good.
So thanks everyone! And thanks mods - keep up the good work. Love you guys.
ETA *image of The Star from Matronua because, for me, it represents this subreddit today. I hated to mark it up with the boobs censor, but I thought I better play it safe.
Sorry if I used the wrong flair, I wasn’t really sure…
So, I’ve always stored decks in their own boxes or in bags/pouches, but I have a couple of decks now that are super special to me, so I’ve been curious about other types of storage, especially when the cards are larger or smaller than standard.
I got the 2nd print of Matronua and I don’t want to keep opening and closing the box, but it’s too precious for one of my raggedy old bags. The cards are too large for most bags and boxes on Etsy. What do you guys use for your favorite decks and where do you shop for deck storage?
TIA you guys! 🙏
Just got another great deck from DMD. I love his art.
Anyone have his Codex deck?
Aside from:
• White Sage
• Every Day
• Light Seer’s
• Traditional RWS
I read RWS, TdM, and runes, so if you know of any small decks for small hands, I’d love to hear about them! Thanks, everyone 🙏
Does anyone have any online learning resources - free or paid, I don’t mind spending money on a good quality course - for learning Tarot de Marseille? I’ve been eyeing Camelia Elias’s course, but I’m on the fence. TIA for help!

Just arrived - really fast! - from Little Darkness Press, the Lilifer Tarot by Marion Costentin.
For TdM fans and flower lovers!

This is the first LWB I’ve ever devoured like a really good short story. I don’t know anything about mythology, so Othrysian’s Titan theme is really fun to study! Thought I’d share; it’s a cool rabbit hole to travel if you’re interested in old mythology.
I’ve been RWS for years; only journeying into TdM this past year.
Which of the traditional decks are your favorite? Artisan Tarot has a 3 piece bundle on sale with Noblet, Conver, and Dodal decks, so I was just gonna get that.
But maybe you guys can tell me more about the differences or make other suggestions. Thanks in advance!
UPDATE: Ordered the Conver to start with. Jacob Jerger is in my “save for later” 😉 Thanks for all the help, everyone, I freaking love you guys.
