Just a little Hi
I came to Aeclectic just as you left so we've never meet.
I've loved the Phantasmagoric from the minute I set eyes on it.
My favorite cards are 4 of coins, 4 of cups, chariot, and 6 of swords (it reminds me of Edward Scissor Hands.
My other favorite decks are Robin Wood, Morgan Greer, World Spirit, and I'm also really enjoying my new Fey and Radiant Rider.
How do they compare to the Phantasmagoric? Well, I don't think anything can compare. It is so unique. The Fey reminds me of it a little. Phantasmagoric is like a little nightmare (and I don't mean that in a negative way.) When I have a dream I like to mull it over in my head and by the end of the day I understand it better. That's what I like to do when I read these cards. They're my favorite MULLING set.
The LWB is pretty good as LWB go. And I do wish Graham Cameron would write a book about this deck. But......then sometimes I'm glad he didn't. Because they've become my own little nightmare with their symbols fitting into my life. His ideas about what each thing ment might be a big disappointment for me. I've come to see some pretty strange things in those cards!
Another thing I like about the deck is the size of the cards and the coloring. I'm a big fan of prismacolor pencil work. I don't think that is what these were done in but the coloring is along the same line. They are also one of the biggest decks I own, which I think sets off the art work best so you can see all that great detail.
Well, I've chattered on long enough. It's great to meet you. And I look forward to reading your posts while you're here.
And THREE CHEERS to Galadrial for keeping this thread alive!
