Hi. I need advice to shuffle the Rohrig , Masonic, and the Stars (Tavaglione ) cards, that are oversized and great for viewing and meditating, but very difficult to work with. Thank you

Try it sideways.....

Put all of the cards face down and swirl them around a few times then gather of pick them all back up. I tend to pick them up as I don't read reversals. Love and light Sulis xx

try shuffling just the corners with a 'light' thumb- you might also deal a choosen number of piles out and then pick up a pile and deal unto the remaining piles and keep going until the deck is back in one pile.

Hi BangBang, I have the Rohrig and the only way I can shuffle is top over top. Instead of shuffling length ways, do it width way so you hold the shortest length of the card in your hand and then shuffle top over top. It takes a little practise but once you get the hang of it, you'll be able to shuffle all your large decks this way. Hope you get the basic idea, its really hard to describe the method lol.

I have Rohrig and I shuffle them side ways, once they get broken in a little they are fairly easy to shuffle.
