Well, I also have this deck and am not necessarily a "faery type person"- meaning- I've not been drawn to faeries before and I've not studied them on any level. I ran across this deck at a time I was really struggling with learning the tarot and the Faeries just started "speaking" when I looked at the cards online in a reading circle for the first time. I bought them up and immediately decided at that point I would only read them intuitively.
I did do the exercises in the front of the book- I think choosing the favorite/least favorite card is a great exercise than can really be used for any new deck or a person who is new to reading cards. I have had these cards a couple of years now and still I haven't read the meanings in the book. The info they are giving me seems to be working on it's own. I do still wonder, if looking at the meanings would expand my view of the cards, but I'm afraid it would cause me to lose the intuitive vibes I get from it already.
The main thing is just to have fun with them, I think. If they ever stop "speaking" I may read the book to see what I'm missing- it is a lovely book.
