I had looked at this deck before. Saw it second-hand and passed up on it because of my dislike of borders and keywords.
But the art did excite me, on every time I went back and looked at it.
And my good friend Moonbow gave a heart-felt recommendation towards these navigators, thinking I would like them.
So last night, I am in London. My boss let me go early and my friend called to say that she had to stay at work a bit later; meaning I had some time on my hands before meeting her.
Perfect opportunity to go shopping.
So I went to Mysteries in Covent Garden.
I think that I have mentioned this before, but there is a lady in there that is such a great help. When I pop in, I always end up chatting to her for absolutely ages and she gets the decks out on the counter for us to look through. This time, we spread out the 'Old English', 'Hermetic', 'Via' and the 'Navigators'. Chatted about the Victorian Romantic and she looked through the cards I had designed in the Tarot Deck Creation board. I showed her the thread with sites that showed all decks and she was fascinated. So if you do join and read this 'Mysteries Lady', I hope you enjoy Aeclectic Tarot!
So, anyways. We were looking through this deck and she said she had spent the day with it. She said it was like being taken into another world. And I could see what she meant. It really was very entrancing, on what was probably my third look.
So after spending close to 1 and a half hours in the shop, I snapped up this deck and the accompanying book. Well, after being their so long, it would be rude to walk out empty handed, hehe.
But today, I will be floating through this dreamscape.
Thanks Moonbow, for turning my head to this deck. Look forward to see what anyone else thinks about it. I intend to not get to deep at first. I had made my own meanings for minors when using other decks, but here, I will go with what was intended, I think. Otherwise, it would do it an injustice.
