For those of you with backup copies of the same deck/same edition of the same deck, do you find that these "identical" decks perform the same as each other for you, or do they have differing personalities? I hope this isn't too mad of a question, but I'm hoping that tarot people understand these things.
When I started out in Tarot, I had two copies of my deck: one that I took with my everywhere in my purse, to study and meditate with... and the other just for readings. It was like one was a learning deck and the other was a reading deck. I found that as each was dedicated to a different purpose, they had different feels to them. Althuogh I never read wth the learning deck, I imagine that how a deck feels affects how it reads.
The only other time I had a duplicate deck was one that was OOP. But I did not use it. I was saving it as a replacement in case my first got damaged or worn out one day. I did end up trading it away one day as someone else on AT wanted it badly. But if I ever see it again I may well get another copy. I think its a phenomenal deck. And that would be the A King's Journey Tarot.
