Mallah
I'm about to go buy the Thoth Deck.
I haven't owned one in about 20 years, but find that my own preferences in decks are now leading me that way again. This will allow me to learn the decans, and more about Crowley and Golden Dawn esoteric stuff.
I studied Kaballah early on in my tarot work, and it has profoundly effected me. I know less about the astrological parts, but want to learn that stuff. And the color theory.
One thing that's interesting is that as I read stuff like the Book of Thoth it's not all greek to me...I seem to get maybe 50% of what's being said (maybe I'm exaggerating, and 20 years down the road I'll think I knew nothing at this point.) Point is my work with the cards and Kabbalah is opening me and I'm learning it anyway.
So anyway the time's come for me to take it all on again...and I have a question...
In going out to the local Metaphysical Bookstore, where they have the deck in Large, Medium and Small, will I be happy with the big one? I had an edition at one time that was the biggest deck I owned...but it was NOT "THE BIG ONE". I'm wondering if the Thoth Deck is nice when it's big, or does it just get grainy? Will I see more in the art?
