I haven't paid much attention, except to look them up if they show their faces in a specific spread. I did buy Understanding the Tarot Court by Greer & Little to have as a reference. |

Howdy. Great news Yira. My candle is lit for you. What a wonderful place to have doggie mascots. Got back from the doctor. Just a simple canker sore. We just weren't able to see it. Boy is bored.  Hoping he can get into one of his games, so that things don't degenerate here.Tired.

Oh, and I am awful with courts. Some decks, I have come very close to just pulling them altogether. __________________ What happens in the Trade Train Cafe stays in the Trade Train Cafe! `````````enjoying the exploration - savoring the journey````````` ````````````````Collecting - Gazing - Shuffling```````````````` |

I had a deck (traded it last train..not sure why even...LOL) that had no courts. It had the majors, and 1-10 of the pips, just no courts...I figured that was a good way to handle those pesky courts! LOL It was the Oracle Tarot. ~Yira __________________ The most wasted of all days is one without laughter. ~e e cummings ~~~~~~~~ Give a person a fish and you feed him for a day.

I don't really have down any of the meanings of any of the cards, sometimes almost feel like I might never get the hang of the cards unless I have the help of a book. __________________ What happens in the Trade Train Cafe stays in the Trade Train Cafe!

One thing that helped me get the basic meanings, Kaleanna, is typing them down. I used several sources, and took bits of each. Then, I would read it once a day, just as a refresher. Then next week I'd do the next one. However, I got busy with school and didn't finish this..*sigh* It really worked GREAT on the ones I did though! I need to finish. Some sources were R. Pollack's Tarot Wisdom, and M. Greer's Understanding the Courts. I also read through Thirteen's tarot meanings and J. Bunning's Learn Tarot. ~Yira __________________ The most wasted of all days is one without laughter. ~e e cummings ~~~~~~~~ Give a person a fish and you feed him for a day.

Thats what I did when figuring out Lenormand. I used the LWB's from each deck that I had and while looking at the cards I jotted down the book meanings, and my own impression of the cards. So much larger a task with Tarot, and since I do mostly go by what I see, its an exercise that I should do with each deck that I use. Huge undertaking.

It is but I feel so much more comfortable with the cards I did that with. Then, I can just let intuition go, and throw out those meanings if needed LOL! But, like TCO, I like having a good foundation to work with before I start throwing out  ~Yira __________________ The most wasted of all days is one without laughter. ~e e cummings ~~~~~~~~ Give a person a fish and you feed him for a day.

I do not think you can read cards without book learning. But I fall into the non-new-age style reading camp. It is a farce to me, reading without knowledge and letting the "gods" or some external force give you the answers...Just can not see that, but I wait to have it shown to me still.
