My first deck was the Tarot Nova bought for me by Amanda04. I saw how awesome her readings were and wanted to learn too, so she took me out to the bookstore and bought me my first deck. Thanks Amanda!!! <3
Several months later I lost the Knight of Pentacles down the crack of my gazebo while practicing some readings outside. So, I went back to the bookstore and chose the Revelations Tarot as the first deck I chose for myself. I thought it would be a great deck to learn with bc it had upright and reversed art, but it definitely wasn't a good deck to learn with. At least not for me.
The Tarot Nova, I still have, but I don't use because it's missing that Knight. The Revelations deck, I also still have, but it's been a long time since I've used it. I no longer use reversals, so I only get it out maybe once a year just to play with it.
