hi aeclectic detectives, i surf a lot and watch all kind of decks. i think i saw one with quite a special Star: the woman character was swimming in the water that she usually just pours. just her head and shoulders ;-) were visible. i can't remember where i saw that pic or even if i dreamt it (yes i dream about tarot cards ...) can someone tell me if there is such a Star around and in which deck?? don't even remember which style it was (drawings or collages for example) ... THANKS a lot in advance! kissa

The motherpeace deck is coming to mind. In the star And the moon cards the woman is in the water. In the star just her head and shoulders are above water. In the moon she is standing thigh or waist deep. It may be a totally different deck from the one you were thinking of though!

Could be the Hudes deck. A beautiful card. If I could figure out how to work the scanner that we just bought, I'd post a pic. for it here. I will try and do it tomorrow. If I do it now, I'll be here till midnight getting all frustrated........

Kissa: The Hudes deck is a melancholy deck. Not sad though. Kind of nostalgic. I love it.

Just my opinion ;) Astraea, when i am bankrupted and my DH filing for divorce, may i use this message of yours to defend the theory that i was not myself and manipulated by invisible forces ??? ... after a short period of recovery, my wishlist has developped extra lines again ... kissa

Yes, I think that's a splendid idea (as long as you delete my name, of course -- I can't afford to pay damages and continue to buy decks), and be sure to pepper your arguments with phrases like "entity attachment" and "etheric obsession" -- and strictly avoid references to tarotholism! ;)

After a couple of incidents in the past, when my family had much less money, and my DH threw a Huge tantrum over my tarot purchases, I now NEVER EVER tell him when I've purchased or ordered tarot decks , books , or bags! I simply neglect to mention it! Since I get home before he does, I always get to the mailbox before him too! ;) . And besides, he spends his money on computer things and electronic gizmos he doesn't need, and some don't even work! So................I don't feel one bit guilty, muwahhhhahhhahhhahha!
