hey, tarotologists out there, something I'm wondering about -
so if I understand this right, the reading of a card depends on an interpretation of its image?
wouldn't that mean the same spread of cards might read very differently depending on which deck I use? as someone coming from Lenormand, this is mildly troubling
@shoofle I suppose that works
@shoofle that might be fun!
Lenormand is much simpler than tarot, I think - it's only got 36 cards and the meaning is much more symbolic than based on the images on the cards themselves. so you can pick basically any Lenormand deck you want and get the same readings out of them as long as the images are conducive to quickly identifying different cards
@shoofle heeeee
I can't say I'm, like, an expert at Lenormand; I've only done a handful of three-card spreads, nothing really big
in Lenormand - dunno if tarot has something similar - the Grand Tableau is a huge reading with a lot of detail that uses all 36 cards and it's way too complicated for my skill level aaa
@shoofle that's crazy @w@
the GT uses all 36 cards and, like, relates them all to one another? with a bunch of different patterns and it's supposed to tell you a lot about your past and present and future, it's bonkers
I'll stick with three card spreads
