I'm curious how many people here only ever read with Rider-Waite-Smith. Yellow Box or Blue Box, tarotee backs, 1970s to present, etc. Not even later clones like Universal or Smith-Waite Centennial.
RWS was your first and continues to be your only working deck. If you learned Tarot from books, they likely included Eden Gray and Waite's own Pictorial Key.
The vast corpus of other decks, as well as RWS clones, has never bothered you even after years of experience. You may collect other decks for artistic curiosity, but for both you and others, you only use RWS.
How many such people still exist after all these decades?
