I use the Angel Messages deck from Doreen Virtue... my old hypnotherapist introduced it to me - it's actually her old deck that I use - and I just fell in love with the cards and the fact that their descriptions are right there under the picture so I don't have to look them up that often, lol. I'm memorizing them though the more I use them. So far I get very accurate readings. A lot of the time I'll just get the urge to pull out a random card and it will actually have great advice for me, I feel it's a tool that my angels and spirit guides are happy to use to communicate with me.
I very often bless my cards and try to fill them with light, and I always ask for the influence to come from God and beings of light. I feel that if I do not specify, perhaps something negative will try to use the cards through me and give me negative readings.
So what tarot deck do you use and what do you like about it?

I use the Dragon deck at tarot.com. I used to actually own a Dragon deck myself, but decided to sell it to a local used book store. I looked at the Dragon deck once and said "This is my deck".

Shaelyn,
Half-Price Books is where I sold my tarot decks to! Besides the dragon deck, I had the Druid Animal Oracle, and Wolf Song Cards.

I've never done tarot as such, but when I was a child I used to have a jar full of little polished pieces of obsidian, and each one felt different to me, I used to do readings for myself and a couple of other people with these. I have no idea where that jar is now.

I use the Rider Waite deck. My father gave it to me, so it's a little bit of a family heirloom. I haven't been able to buy another deck yet... I don't like the images on the Rider Waite that much and would like to have another deck sometime. For now, this will do though. (I like runes better anyway, but tarot gives more detailed results.) @ Helvetisaz: Tarot is a deck of cards which is used as a divination tool. People often use it to get in touch with their inner guides and it helps you discover deeper truths that lie within your life.

I use thoth tarot, feels good to use it due to the fact that crowley put a lot of astrological symbols in it.

I use the Osho Zen tarot now. I got it for my birthday and it is so pretty! I can't do any readings yet because I'm trying to feel the cards first before I do that... but at least I'm practicing. ^-^

I need to buy myself a deck one day. Found a really beautiful set at the coast when I went there for a week with my friends (I think it might've been Goddesses or something) but resisted the urge to buy it cos it might've been a bit difficult to explain to my parents. After I turn 18 I'll definitely get one, cos then only I get to say what I can and can't do ^-^

Muirrin, are your parents very strict about that kind of stuff? J/C

Not as bad as phantomx's parents, that's for sure! They're not strict so much as they don't really understand it, and I wouldn't know what their reactions would be. It's just better not to risk anything while I'm still at home

Hi Waterjag,
If you wouldn't mind, could you please tell me what you know about Thoth?
He's been in the last 2 books I've read, so I'm curious to know what you know.

I'm currently in the middle of discovering (together with Muirrin!) the way of reading the cards. The readings I did up till now were really accurate so I have got good hopes for the future!

You're better than me! lol.. but I think they're slowly getting more and more accurate so I guess I'll just keep practising and see where that takes me.
I ended up buying the ones I'm pretty sure I saw at the coast... Doreen Virtue's Goddess tarot deck. I'm in love with them ^-^

The other night I had a dream in which I was using a rather unusual system similar to tarot. I suspect I could design a working system based on what I dreamed. It was a little more complicated, there were five different shapes of card, well actually each one was only half a card and each shape would fit like a jigsaw onto one of its mate cards (the fifth would fit next to one the same shape as itself) I remember quite a variety of the pictures on the cards drawn for other people, but all the ones someone else drew for me were either trees or eyes and I remember her saying of one of the cards "that olive tree card wasn't in the deck a few minutes ago, it must have appeared specially for you. I don't know how to read it." Maybe I would have trouble making a tarot deck that actually had cards appear and vanish in special cases.

I now also use the Druid Animal Oracle, the Water Crystal Oracle and the Goddess cards. For an example of the latter: www.tarotpassages.com/goddessriverinfo.htm^-^ I'm still getting used to all of them but so far they work really well for me.

I use the Gilded Tarot. I actually wanted the Tarot Of Dreams, but that one is more expensive. I used to own the Medieval Cat Tarot (my 1st deck) aw, such lovely kitties...
