About 6 hours. I never sleep 8 hours anymore.
Your longest break from Tarot?

Right on!
I have decks just about everywhere... Including at least 1 in my purse, a teeny tiny majors only deck in my wallet, decks in my car's glove box, apps on my Andriod phone & my iPad, a book bag of ever rotating decks, that goes on many of my travels...
I even have decks under my side of the bed, so they are even with me when I sleep...
So, I don't feel like I ever "take a break from Tarot". It is just so fascinating to me.
PLUS, it feels like a great tool to get symbolic messages from my Spirit Self.
***oh my, what an insane nut***

Around two decades, while raising a family and pursuing a career. I still did (very) occasional readings for my wife during those years, but I wasn't learning anything new or buying any new decks. Then, when I retired and started back into my esoteric studies, I discovered AT and that's all it took.

It's been a few years since I've tried to sit down and really read. I sort of attempted to get back into the swing of things a year or so ago, but then we moved and my favorite deck got lost along the way. I'm happy to see others have gone longer! hehe
