Tarot Salad, dressed with yarrow stalks (I Ching) and anointing oils. I like it.
It was Emmsma who said that, about her deck in a bowl She would pick one every morning before leaving the house.
I miss Emmsma!

Thank you for your praise of my cat. He's definitely very special.
I'm loving my minuscule Thoth so much that I'm tempted to trim my Centennial RWS in a Tin... But it fits so nicely in the tin as it is.
I'd be very interested in seeing this giant RWS sometime. I feel like I would likely put my favourite cards on a wall. Unfortunately, I have trouble shuffling cards larger than standard tarot decks... Which is why I love minis.

Glennmaicha! I LOVE your cat! forgie me fr omitting that earlier! I also love your avvie, featuring your lovely baby...
To stay on topic - yeah, I don't like super large decks either. While I love my Daniloff, the longer cards and sharp edges make it really a pain to shuffle with these smaller hands...
@ Laura - LOVE your new avvie! And yes, it's fresh!
There are several of hers like that.Another oversized deck (though not as big as some mentioned here) is Laura Tuan's Tarocchi Celtici, aka les Tarots Celtiques. Besides being large, they have square corners, and are printed on papery cardstock with a rough surface like watercolor paper. Each suit, and the trumps, are printed on a different color paper - the background color isn't printed on.
The detail would be impossible to make out if they were any smaller. It's not super easy as is. I haven't really tried to make a study of it yet but I believe there is a coherent system in it with the trees that are associated with each pip card. It's an odd one to be sure!
