using playing cards
I think that with so many lovely decks people are drawn to what is so different and or special about various tarot or oracle decks, I actually use various oracle decks but not the tarot that much, and regular cards are a must if I am doing a reading since the method I use I have chosen because it is the most accurate.
I first used regular cards then learned about dice, and the other was the gypsy witch cards which have been around since at least the 40's, and the images have a regular card on each deck, as well as a picture for what it might represent.
For some who read tarot this deck seems more of a game I suppose to some it is, and the tarots are some lovely decks as are the oracle cards.
But a regular deck of cards is basically the tarot without the major arcana anyway.
I am curious as to how many variations and what they may be for regular cards, I mean there is the Gypsy witch deck, of course, then there are other ways of using regular cards some I think may be word of mouth for family, and one of the most accurate I have ever used and have used since 1976 is using 32 of the 52 cards removing the 2's, 3's,4's,5's, and 6's using only King through sevens, and the aces. It is one that is written by Margaret Ward has been around since the 30's, called Gong Hee Fot Choy while learning you might use the book combined with intuition but I would recommend this to anyone interested in being able to eventually just pick up any regular deck of cards and lay them out for insight once you get an idea as to the meanings anytime anywhere you can lay the cards out with out the book and have some idea.
So right now I am reading Cortez's book since this is also showing regular deck of cards though she has added 4 cards to her deck I am very interested in what others might do for reading with regular playing cards.
