I wasn't exactly sure where to put this thread. Talking Tarot? Oracles? It touches on both.
Anyhow, I've recently re-discovered oracles, and I've discovered that in love with them. This morning, as I was going through my Dreaming in Colour Luman Deck, I started thinking. Often on the forums, you see people say something along the lines of "I love this tarot deck, but I use it as an oracle." I suppose this means that the imagery is so non-traditional that it can be read intuitively as an oracle rather than as a tarot deck. I know that with some of the non-traditional decks I have, I use them as oracles and pretty much ignore the number and suit assignment for each card.
Does anyone else do this? What decks do you use?
I'll start a brief list. The decks that come immediately to mind are:
Waking the Wild Spirit (which is organized like a tarot deck, but has different suits and very non-traditional imagery)
Tarot of Metamorphosis
possibly Animals Divine
So...anyone else? What tarot decks do you use like oracles?
