hey, what happened to this study group??? i was so glad to have finally found one here but then dissapointed that it was no longer ongoing!!
i got this deck a couple of months ago, as my first!! what was i thinking?? (not to mention, it's the miniature version, so what i'm assuming are hard-to-read faces/emotions in the larger deck are REALLY obscured in the mini version!!!) well, i just liked it. but i soon realised it was not a beginners deck, and went out and bought a traditional deck. my first instinct was to learn "traditional" meanings and then read with the art nouveau deck that way. some of the meanings from the LWB just don't add up to me!! and i agree with others who've said they wished the deck creator would've added SOME kind of commentary about why she included certain things in some cards, and what certain things mean, well, she'd need an ENTIRE book for such an individual deck though wouldn't she!!?
BUT, i still love this deck, and though i find the imagery a little intimidating, i keep being drawn back to it. hope there are still some people up for studying it!
