Ok, so I did a search and did look through old threads about the extra Magi in the 3 Magi edition of the deck, but most of those seem more a discussion of the origins of those (them being rejects, which edition they come in, differences between em) rather than...what people actually do with em, for those that have the deck?
I got this deck particularly because I wanted to have the comparison/choice. The lovely book I have that I also bought to help me along with this deck is pretty firm in the 'those extra two were Crowley's rejects, not legit, do not use' opinion, but well...I dont feel so obliged to blindly follow Crowley's edicts on this, i guess, lol...
Symbolically, I dont really see a difference, same things in each mostly, just differently arranged. Personally, I was just going to choose the one I liked best, but I find its really hard for me to pick between the sideways/purple-bronze magi and the official one...I like the sideways one best overall, but the official has a nice geometric background that speaks to me also. The 8 armed one I really dislike for some reason....
So I think I'm going to keep both of the two I like in the deck for use, and just use mr. 8 arms as a bookmark for my thoth keywords book :0 Kind of how I use both emperors in VRR...
I was wondering, for those who also have the 3 mag version which they use for reading, what did you choose to do?
