'power' decks - do you have any?

Difference...

I would also love to know what the difference is between "traditional" decks and more modern ones where the artwork has veered from the MG or RW Decks?

last night i was reading about entering the spirit world and places of power etc. and my mind was going over my decks. i was wondering whether some of the ones i own are more 'powerful' than others, ie whether some are better portals to the spirit world than others. i then felt compelled to get all my so-called 'power' decks out of the box i keep them in and put them at the foot of my bed (don't ask me why). they were:

Doesn't the power of the deck differ from person to person, in accordance with their view / opinion / "attraction" to the deck in question? as well as the results obtained from working with the decks?
yes, the power of the deck differs from person to person. that's why everybody who responded to my thread listed different ones. even i changed my mind in the end.

i suppose it depends on what you want to do with the deck. do you want to use it just for reading or do you want to do magical work with it, which is what i had in mind.

Thanks for the clarification

Hi BrightEye,

Thank you for the clarification..

At the moment, I am just focusing on tarot.

I would like to know all the other possibilities related to the tarot cards, though.

I am a baby at this, and am still very uncertain on many issues. I have been told that the tarot decks may be portals to the spirit world, and would really like to know how this works, not because I want to try that, but because I have an emormous respect for the spirit world, and would like to know what sort of attraction the cards to spirits, if any, or do you have to specifically use them for that purpose.

To me some decks are more powerful because the person creating the deck has entered more strongly into spirit of reading tarot. Understands the symbols more deeply and incorporates them more effectively into the art.

there's quite a lot of possibilities to use tarot ;-)
to use tarot decks to access sprit world you have to invocate (spirit in you)or evocate (spirit is out of you) a spirit.

I suggest you read on chaosmagick to do that, it's the more straight roads i know for magick

So, a more poweful deck would be a deck in which the artist has an understanding of tarot, and not necessarily the art work on the card?
