Okay, so this question is a little out of the ordinary. Through some very odd circumstances I've found myself helping out a local 'ghost-hunting' group, as their token spiritualist. Not feeling up to completely relying on my psychism I looked around for some suitable spreads. And found a really interesting spread by miss_apples, The Spirit Spread. However, a very limited range of cards have shown up, and hense not really offering alot of specific detail. So, my question is, is there any particular deck that would be suitable for contacting spirits and other energies? I've had a look around and found many, many decks I want but none that would seem to fit the bill. So any help at all would be much apreciated! Thanks all so very much! -chebe

Hi Chebe! Well, I feel like you could use just about any deck for this purpose as it would depend on how you personally relate to a deck. For me I know that the Tarot of the Dead would be the best choice for this spread. This is a great deck that is based on the Day of the Dead celebration to honor those who have passed through the veil. Eventhough the characters on the cards are all skeletons the cards are very "happy" and colorful and in my experience give "dead on" readings (sorry...couldn't resist the pun). It is not at all a dark or scary deck to work with which could be helpful in doing this work you describe. Hope this helps!

Thanks for your help. I do really like that deck, very few make me laugh! *smile* I think the deck I really want doesn't exist yet. So it's back to the drawing board. Another approach needed, but thanks again! -chebe
