I decided to open a thread for people who have (or had) huge problems with RWS deck.
It happened I bought RWS deck, finally (unfortunately, it's the US Games edition without original writings by Pixie). It took me more than a year and more than 20 decks to get original RWS. Why? 'Cause I thought it's a kind of an obvious choice. Everyone has RWS (ok, not everyone, but most of the people). Most of the people are learning with this deck. When random people think about Tarot, they picture these cards. I must admit, I hate this aspect of the deck.
At some point, I decided to get Morgan-Greer. I love it to pieces and decided to get RWS. I got it and loved instantly. I'm into these two 'cause I wanted something to read for people, not only online, but while going out too. They're easy to read and full of symbolism which can be easily find in many resources. Not to mention, I love to read about Tarot and most of the books have illustrations of RWS or similiar. I use Tarot app where is RWS. Without having the cards, I know the pictures. But getting them physically - I was stunned. Now I think, how I could wait so long?
I must admit - I have a hate-love relationship with RWS deck (much less with Morgan-Greer). Now, I can't imagine dream interpretations or more personal work without it. I'm even planning to get more RWS decks.
Anyone of you have something special with RWS? Did you come to it after a while, or getting at the beginning, then hating it and getting back again? It's a bit fascinating 'cause months ago I promised to myself - I'll never ever get RWS deck. Just never ever.
