does anyone else still have difficulty with the court cards sometimes?..i have always used more traditional decks ie rider-waite,sharman-caselli etc.Are there any decks available where the court cards seem to "speak" to the reader?

The 'Druidcraft' has lovely courts; very expressive. They have a lot of personality and you can 'feel' them in a reading. LB

Hi, I had this problem but then I read 'Understanding the Tarot Court" by Mary Greer. It helped a lot.

I haven't been a member long, but I've found the discussions of the various cards on this board of more value than my books. There is a thread at the top of this forum listing links to discussion threads. Hope this helps.

I agree with LittleBuddha - the Druidcraft courts are very good. I think Ciro's Gilded is another one worth mentioning. I found The Tarot Court Cards by Kate Warwick-Smith useful.
