Since I spent the first four decades of my tarot journey uncontaminated by the RWS deck, I find it relatively easy to decouple myself from the images (which don't always convey Waite's meanings) and just go with other modes of interpretation. The Thoth meanings are generally reliable, and the Golden Dawn's are OK for the most part. Where I like the RWS is for directional reading, and also for situational awareness, but not so much for the individual card narratives. Some that I don't "get" when trying to blend the scenes with the esoteric back-story are the 6 of Cups, the 6 of Swords, the 6 of Pentacles and the 2, 3 and 4 of Wands.
