my 'Golden Dawn Tarot' deck came in a week earlier than i expected, so i'll be consecrating it Tuesday night! this isn't what i thought my next deck would be, but the bookstore i get most of my stuff from is going out of business. and they have this deal where every $150 you spend earns you a $10 credit. so finding out that i was only $3 short of the rebate, i bought some incense, and got the GD deck for $10! i mainly got it for the Tower card, as i've been working with the Qlippoth lately, and this card seems to get me there really well. and i figured i can really get into it during the fast, so... :)

Which Golden Dawn is it-Chic Cicero or Robert Wang? Hope it feels good to you.

Alobar! Congratulations on your new deck! Looking forward to reading your impressions of it now that you have in your hands... :D

it's the Wang/Regardie deck, and i've actually been working with a friends for awhile now, long enough to realise that i needed one for my shelf. i still don't like the 'backward' association of the Strength and Justice cards, but it seemed important to get a firmer grasp on the GD system, since the majority of modern decks sprang from it in one way or another. and i seem to get a much deeper access with this deck than i do the RW. btw, my fast is at 60 hours and counting, and i'm actually feeling really good!
