Hi, I'm new here and fairly new to Tarot. I've owned several decks for several years, but honestly never did much with them other than shuffle through them once in awhile, or perhaps just draw a single card and meditate on its possible message. Lately I've felt that I want to get into it in more depth, and have been reading Rachel Pollack's "78 Degrees," and also reading other material online.
I read what Ms. Pollack had to say about choosing a significator card for a Celtic Cross spread. As a man in his late 50s, she suggests that I choose one of the king cards for that purpose, so I looked at the four, trying to decide which one fit best with what I know and feel about myself. Perhaps I should also mention that I was using the Golden Tarot by Kat Black, which is my favorite deck.
The problem came up when I couldn't decide between the King of Cups and the King of Swords. Honestly, there are aspects of both cards that fit my personality. So my question is, how does one decide on a single card as a significator when it seems that no one card is a perfect fit?
Thanks in advance.
