I have been deeply immersed in the world of Tarot since 1969, when I obtained my first deck, the bizaare (to me, at leat as a teenager!) "Zolar's Astrological Tarot."
However, I quickly realized its limitations and replaced it with the captivating "Hoi Polloi Tarot," a variant of the renowned Rider-Waite deck, along with the 1JJ Muller Swiss deck. While I regrettably lost the Waite variant during one of my many relocations, I still possess my cherished Swiss deck, as well as multiple editions of the Albano-Waite decks, which have remained my trusted companions throughout the years, alongside numerous others.
In recent times, my fascination has extended to the captivating Visconti decks, and I have acquired several reproductions to explore their rich symbolism. Additionally, I have found great inspiration in Paul Huson's Dame Fortune's Wheel and Rolla Nordic's Tarot. It is undeniable that I possess a genuine fondness for the vintage style of Tarot decks.
Over the past 50 years, my collection has grown significantly, and while I cannot provide an exact count of the decks I currently own or have possessed, it has certainly been extensive. Some decks hold a special place in my heart and continue to be a part of my practice, while others I joyfully share as gifts to spread the magic of Tarot.
