Hi,
I've used RW for about 15 years and it's been fab. A few years ago I bought Thoth to try, but never got the feel for it and felt it wasn't as accurate as RW. (I only do readings for myself). So for all sort of reasons it's not been used, as I haven't had the time to read at all last 2 years or so. Anyway, decided to pick Tarot up again and thought - well now it's a good time to connect to Thoth again slowly.
Fair enough, so did a reading yesterday. A simple past, present, future for the day which has been very accurate before with my RW. But honestly it was just not on the ball at all.
To demonstrate: the card that ends the day was 3 of Swords (with clarifiers: 5 of Swords, 5 of Cups, Knight of Swords). So I really expected a bit of bad news or event that would put me in a bad mood or something like that. Nothing. At all.
To compare the two decks I also did a RW which had the magician in the same position as 3 of Swords which made totally sense to me when the day was over.
What am I missing with Thoth? It must be some sort of a connection issue? I mean - I am only a beginner regarding Thoth but trying to read up on it but it still doesn't make any sense to me. Must be something I'm doing wrong. Any tips to connect?
A.V.
