Hello Friends!
Most tarot readers I meet have an enhanced awareness of energy, seasons, other animals, and their environment in general. Because of this awareness and feeling of unity with my environment, I really care about keeping it beautiful and taking care of all creatures and beings on the earth, as I'm sure most of you do as well. I went to buy a tarot deck the other day and saw that all the decks in the store were wrapped in plastic. I knew that the plastic on the deck would be thrown away as soon as I got home but would remain forever in the environment taking up space in a landfill. It made the beautiful tarot decks much less appealing to me once I considered the true cost of my purchase. I guess the plastic is to prevent people from touching the cards or removing any before they are purchased, but I feel like a paper sticker across the seam would suffice. I would even rather they be in a case rather than have them wrapped in plastic. What are your thoughts on this? Is the plastic wrapping important to you? Would you buy a deck sealed with a sticker or not sealed at all? If we don't really need the plastic wrapping and would buy the decks anyway, maybe the publishers can just leave them off.
I appreciate your input on this!
