One Reading, Two Decks Sign Up
Posted: 03 May 2020, 02:25
Hi, Everyone,
This activity requires access to two tarot decks, though any combination of any sort of tarot deck would work. For example Thoth and TDM, or alternatively two RWS decks. You would do a reading for someone, first pulling cards from one deck. Then supporting cards or additional cards would be pulled from the second deck. I thought but would be fun to see what patterns do or do not emerge. Because you are using a second for additional cards, what could be potentially pulled will not be limited by what has already been laid out in the reading.
You could use any spread you like, you just have to determine which parts of the spread will be dedicated to which deck. I might suggest something like this: basic three-card reading of your choice, followed by a second tier which has positions for influences that correspond to the four elements: your perspective, your creative drive, your emotions, and things of this world that are significant to you. (You don't have to choose a card from that suit, you can pull from the deck as a whole.)
-------------------------------Pentacles
Swords.--------past. present. future.--------Wands.
---------------------------------Cups
In this example, the past/present/future cards would come from the first deck. The four element cards would come from the second deck.
Sign up by posting a reply to this post by May 10, and I will assign partners by late the night of May 11. I will DM you all the partner list and post it a a new topic here. Readings and feedback should be posted by the end of the month. Post here or DM if you have questions.
Thank you so much!
