I started with the RWS and later upgraded to the Sharman-Caselli deck. I really enjoy it and have gotten pretty good at reading it intuitively.
I was ready for a change and to test the waters, I downloaded some tarot apps— Fellowship of the Fool, Gaian Tarot and one other. They are beautiful and I am still exploring them.
But I can't figure out how to read them intuitively. On my other decks,I got very used to certain images, symbols and colors being significant. Some of these are absent on the new decks. A card will be just any color, or a symbol I am used to won't be there. One card on the Gaian deck had an otter on it. I have no idea how to use that in a reading.
Sometimes they even rename a card or depart completely from the imagery I am used to. I find I am cheating and using the built-in guide for every card. I just can't seem to read these other decks intuitively. Can I work on this somehow? Or should I just stick with the deck I know?
