practical magic
I ordered the Gaian Tarot from a bookstore a few days ago and am impatiently waiting for it to arrive. (I'll admit it - I'm an impatient person ) I've thought of a few questions I have in the interim, and thought "no time like the present"
1) I've heard the mass-market Gaian Tarot (which is the one I ordered) is a thinner deck - are there any special precautions I should take when using it?
2) How big are the cards / how big is the deck? (In other words, what size bag/wrap/cover should I buy? - I've heard it comes in a large box so I may finally order one of the bags/covers I've got on my wish list at Etsy... I'd like to order before the deck arrives though so there's not a lot of delay (in theory) between arrivals.
^ I searched around here for the size of the cards but while I found a few informative posts about this deck, I didn't notice card/deck size.
3) Do any of you belong to the Gaian Tarot Circle? I'm considering but it's pricey... and I don't really know... I'm not the most active person online. I'm really more of an online "loner"...
Any other advice/wisdom you think tarot newbies should know about the Gaian Tarot, please share.
Thanks!
