I have the Rider Waite. Recently i get this 'oh no' feeling, kind of mild revution to the cards. I know why it is; its that feeling of having spent every day all day for too long with your lover, playing your favorite song to the death, eating too much chocolate in one sitting...
And worse, the meanings are starting to calicfy. What once felt like fluid possibilities that slowly focus to a contextual meaning, is now becoming a narrow, predefined meaning, as though i have read just one meaning given out of a book. Mostly no words come at all, just the image on the card. Like all the possibilities are just sticking to it and adhereing to what i see on the cardboard. Rather than the answers be revealed through the image its like the answer conforms to the image. static. I hate it.
I'm guessing both feelings go together, so the question is, is it time to get a completely different deck to refresh myself? or is it more worthwhile to persevere with this one?
Anybody else experienced this? what did you do and how did it help?
