my sister and i were into this in high school.
this was our book/deck set.
i actually learned and memorized them, and i still know what they mean and remember a few spreads. just that when i was using it, i ended up lying to my classmates and just gave them what they wanted to hear. i just think its more of a psychology thing. you gauge and read the person you're reading for, rather than the cards itself.
its a fun hobby, but i remember talking to this dude whos into this whole spiritual stuff, and he says that the cards "speak" to you. if you're meant for the cards, you'd feel some sort of energy and you'd have this sort of connection with it. he tells me he blacked out when he first touched his and even saw lights (possible na gutom lang yun, but whatever). i'm like... okaaay, well, we just bought ours from Barnes and Noble and thought it was cool because we liked
The Craft.
