Well, it may help if all you addicts realise that most of your addiction just goes to fill up the pockets of the distributors.
And that a large majority of the Tarot decks you people are falling your heads over to buy will leave you cold in a few months.
And that you will be just falling over yourselves to buy another one.
Don't you realise that you're just addicted? You remind me sometimes of a heroin addict who keeps on having to stick that needle into his vein to survive.
Anyway, most Tarot decks out there are just copies of other decks. The designers have never really given much thought as to why a 4 of Wands has this meaning, or why a 7 of Cups has that meaning. They vaguely copy most often a Rider Waite deck without having any understanding as to why the pictures are depicted as such.
The blind are leading the blind.
Stop celebrating your addiction. It is actually not funny.
Some of the decks you people buy only vaguely resemble Tarot.
Is this de-enabling enough?
Ah, but Diana, that doesn't count for me... at least most of it doesn't. All my Decks that I have (wow! 3, bought 2) I still love. Even though I'm giving one away to someone I love more dearly then the Deck
So far, my wishlist is non-existent, and I saw hunderds of deck. I'm the nitpicky type I guess.
Now that Osho Zen Tarot is ordered and coming my way, there is nothing I want. Indeed, shocking. Nothing. I'd have 3 Decks, and I'm content. I guess I'm not much of a Tarot Deck Addict.
Although, yes, sinec I'm giving away that one Deck, I wouldn't mind buying a replacement for me, but I'm expecting it to take a year.
Diana, you would probably try to make me buy a deck! Because I don't own a Marseilles!
