I am curious if you have decks, links, ideas on your favorites that seem focused on warm feelings, partnership themes, or the like...perhaps ones that you found surprising.
I looked at my own favorite themes and it seems when there are unions of opposities or a soft focus of feeling, these decks (and some have related books), stay with me. Some of them are those are listed in discount online links as many devotees of a subject might find them too lightweight or silly. The Tarot Sutra, Hamilton Books, for eight dollars, is a pretty recoloring of the Rider Waite and some of the titles and ideas seem ideal for writing romantic fiction characters, at least to me.
I want to build a collection of links and ideas for related tarots...not necessarily erotic, sometimes just 'romantic in thine eyes'--for instance, you could see the Nowicki's Shakesphere as romantic because of your own filters and feelings. Or the warmly companionable Gay Tarot might be a friendly deck that also works for certain romantics. Another surprise might be the Della Rocca Tarot Soprafino for it's period and delicate engraving...
The one that I am most eagerly awaiting is the U.S. Games Lovers Path, due sometime in December 2004 in limited edition...my least expensive one was the bargain Tarot Sutra. The surprise for me was the Tarot of Atlantis, which might be another creative fiction project...
Sorry for going on--I'm eager to read your thoughts as well! I'll add links as I find them as decks are named...that is if you don't get to it first.
