Thanks for the welcome i have two diplomas and a certificate in the tarot but i studied the rider waite for all the qualifications. I have many sets of cards and only yesterday i got another set the druids plant oracle. I hope to add them to my druidcraft cards for extra interest., Their are so many lovely sets around you want to collect them all.I have loved the tarot since i was a child i remember buying a set of cards with my pocket money. I am particuarly fond of rider waites cards as the man was a genius and many sets of cards available copy his original ideas.

Rider Waite cards are very good set. The only set which I have at the moment, and quite possibly the one I'll be learning with is the Marsielles Deck. Are you familiar with that one?

Yes i do know that set but the ones i work with have images on the minor arcana too i dont believe the marseilles have that do they ?? People think the minor arcana isnt important but it is as it portrays your life at every stage here and now..If you dont have pictures to stimulate you on the minor arcana then you will need to be red hot with your numerology. The minor arcana can give you advice on obstacles and hopes and dreams and choices in everyday.

And this is what my cons/pentacles looks like so mine is actually feeding the imageination and telling a strory where as your images would need to rely on numerology..

Hmm, I guess I kind of see your point. Sorry, still very new to Tarot overall.

Its okay i bought your set once when i was a child.. I had to buy the rider waite for my courses i did ..so i am well up on them but i believe if you can read the rider waite then you can read many other sets a s most of them are copys from the rider waite.The rider waite was the first set to have images on minor arcana. To read yours i would need to know the numerology scale which i do know so i could read your cards but the images dont inspire me much.

Hmm, I've always been attracted to the Marsielles Deck. I will probably buy the Rider Waite one at some stage too though, as most of the courses you can do seem to base their curriculum around the Rider Waite deck.

think its because a good percentage of the cards are copy from the rider waite the images on the minor arcana are allways very similar..Their is a free tarot course online you could do i will give you the link if you want me too..and i am allways here to help if you get stuck..

At the moment I'm focusing on a Wicca course, I know of two online tarot courses already. Thanks.
