Okay ladies and gents. I have just one itty bitty little question for y'all. I have spent my day going through the "Using Tarot Cards" board (yes all sixty-some-odd pages) and most of it was quite interesting. I have found some topics similar to my question (which I will add in here soon) but not exactly.
I have read (in here) that some of you use majors only and/or the full deck. But does anyone ever use minors only?
Maybe its just me because I started off with playing cards. But I feel like like the tarot is a map. The majors are the gridlines and big geography while the minors are the roads and streams (etc.). You can use one or the other to get where you're going but its best to use both. That being said sometimes I feel as if I just want the details without looking at the broader picture and so I use the minor arcana. While other times I just want to see the entirety and I use the major arcana. Although if I really want a 3D look I'll use both.
I don't know. Maybe I'm not making any sense. But I was just wondering on other people's views of it.
