I just got the Tarot of the Hidden Folk. I like the deck quite a bit (although there are things about some of the cards that bother me).
My main issue is... I have trouble with some of the meanings from the LWB.
Temperance: mood changes which can be frightening,
The Empress: many actions seem aimed at increasing vanity
Strength: unfortunately we often dedicate ourselves to empty activities
Justice: always ready to show off
Knight of Swords: he follows any advice, even if stupid, because of his laziness
Queen of Chalices: in spite of her gentle ways, she doesn't enjoy doing things for others.
Nine of Pentacles: loves theft, swindles, and common speculation
Most times, I just read intuitively, not necessarily worrying about the "traditional" meaning of a particular card. But, having read through the LWB, some of those meanings now stick in my head, and they bother me.
My question to all of you is, when the LWB meanings vary from the traditional meanings, do you use the LWB meanings, or do you ignore them?
