hi!
i've been trying to finde out more about the sibyl for some time but nobody ever replyes to my thread.
i have:
la magica sibilla (dal negro)
l'oracolo della sibilla (us games)
sibylle des salons (grimaud)
i have found both from my decks and what i finde on the internet that the italian sibyls have diferent designations of the cards to the french sibyls.
EG: in the sibylle des salons amour is the 6 of hearts.
in the italian decks (la magica sibilla) it is the 4 of hearts.
the sibylle des salons designate the 3 of hearts and dimonds as the male and female consultant. in the italian sibilla, they have added 2 extra cards for a male or female consultant which are seperate from the 52 cards assoceated with the original playing cards.
why this is, i do not know. but i'll tell you one thing, it drives me nuts!
i'm beguinning to realise that the sibyls are not suposed to be too dificult to read. i think you're suposed to read them much like a lenormand deck...
dus any body want to make a study group for the sibyl? i would definitly be interested in finding out what other people know and perhaps looking into posible interpretations of cards, maby even from both french and italian decks.
another thing that is realy strainge and i fogot to mention is, the "oralolo della sibilla" seams to have mixed the designations of the cards of the french and italian sibyls! that drives me even mor nuts!
i'll be watching this thread. and i hope to finde out the opinions and vews of you guys. especialy Pollux who apears to have alot of experience with these decks.
