You know, it just occurred to me that I own six different Marseilles decks. Apparently I'm addicted to them. Someone, please de-enable me from buying Marseilles decks! Perhaps I should just burn them...
You could keep one...but best is to burn them all of course, get rid of those addictive things once and for all. And they make such beautiful bonfires !
And why...they are ugly...and unreadable for someone used to RWS. They are traditional, and traditions must go sooner or later.

The Tarot gods will receive them will pleasure. A wonderful sacrifice!!!!
Oh, but I can see it now... one of us chucks a deck onto the flames, and someone else shrieks "OH I'VE WANTED THAT ONE FOR YEARS!" and rescues it for their own collection, and most of the decks only get a little singed.

LOL - could you imagine someone throwing themselves on the pyre to follow their most beloved deck! We could put them in a Viking ship replica & have some non-tarot loving friends push it out to sea so we could watch from a safe distance.

Yes, or we'd have to set up some kind of fence to keep us far enough from the fire that we can only throw the decks in, not reach them. Maybe after the decks have burned beyond recoverability we can toast hot dogs and marshmallows on long sticks.
