Ah Marion... A long long time ago, before I joined Aeclectic, I did not own a Robin Wood...! *Gasps* *Kiama without her Robin Wood? Surely not?!?!* It's true, all true...
I used the Shakespearian Tarot from the age of 13-15. Before that I used the Sugar Mystic deck. After it I used the Witches Tarot. And after that... I started collecting decks!
I used to love the Shakespearian Tarot, since I have always loved Shakespeare, but it was a very difficult deck to read with when I was only 13, and I think the only reason I read with it was because I had neither the money nor the knowledge of Tarot-deck 'outlets' to be able to get another deck. Needless to say, it went by the wayside when I found the Robin Wood deck (after wading through Witches, Fenton Bale, Moon Garden, and a few more...). Every now and then I notice it in my collection and bring it out to have a look and reminiscence... The highlight of this deck was being asked for a reading with it by my Fundamentalist Christian English teacher. I think her love of Shakespeare finally overcame her!
There was a brief time when I gave up the Robin Wood *More gasps* for the Nigel Jackson, but it only last a few months. The Nigel Jackson was too big for my hands.
Every now and then I'll read with a different deck, when I feel like a change, or I'll pull out a second deck to add to my Robin Wood in a reading.
So I'm not
totally faithful....
Kiama
