Do you have similarities that run throughout your (most used/favorite) decks? What have they taught you about your 'tarot vision' or self?
For instance, I have noticed most of my decks have 'The Universe' cards instead of The World. This is significant to me as I believe in no specific ruling God but the collective conscious/unconscious/subconscious etc. And reincarnation. So I say things like "I think the Universe is urging me to be more bold"etc.
I have also noticed that the decks I end up using do not have a hierophant-looking High Priestess. I need her either naked and wild or, if dressed and on the more refined side, then to be in/around her element of water and fresh vegetation or with a symbolic seductive fruit. The moon must be real and not just a glyph above her head.
I've noticed that I like my pages female and it helps me differentiate between the page/Knight energy.
I have gotten decks that do not use the Pope/church as HIEROPHANT which I find appropriate as there are many types of established religions and not every Taurus is a Catholic ;-) (actually taureans can be very devoted pagans as they connection t to the earth..)
Those are some examples I can think of now.
These are not things that were consciously picked out by me when I bought the decks, however I can now see how they fit my views on things and how they bring my beliefs to.my attention and expand them.
Any similar experiences?
