Do you use a special deck and book for this type of reading? It looks very interesting. I would like to know more about this. Can anyone elaborate on this for me please? Thanx, bellaluna

There have been tons of threads on this subject. One is in the General section labled "Konraad's Past Life Spread" (I know this cause I posted the thing--difficult but works well). You don't need any special deck, but certain decks are better than others for Past Life Spreads. A very specific deck, like, say, an Egyptian style deck, will bias your intuition--you're bound to look at those cards and think you were an Egyptian queen, right? Better to use a deck of no particular period, one that can allow your intuition and feelings to go where the will, so that you pick up on feelings of when that past life really was--not where the card images are. If you see what I mean.

with your suggestions. I have used Egyptian themed decks. The Tarot of Timeless Truth has also been useful!--Tao

I like doing Past Life readings...but they take a lot out of me. I know a lot of people just use the tarot, but I use a combination of the tarot (my mini Hanson Roberts deck!) and a deck called the Phoenix Cards...which were designed specifically for connecting with past lives.

It's not exactly a tarot deck but Infinite tarot works with the same suit energies and personality types. I don't specifically use it for a past life reading, but most readings I do tend to touch on past life issues.
