Two Books for March
I'm creating a category I'm just calling "Books" because I really still love old-fashioned books that a person can hold in one's hands. I haven't bought Tarot books much in a year or more but every so often I find one or two (or more) that really interest me. I found that when I belatedly got all excited about Bennebel's Holistic Tarot, I was a real late-comer so I might find that the ones I just got , everyone else has had since last year, but I'm going to do it anyway. If anyone wants to post on the threads in this category, I'll be happy but if I'm posting about "old news" and it doesn't spark comments or chat about the books, that's okay too.
For this month, I found two books that really intrigued me. They're called:
- The Modern Fortune Teller's Field Guide by Tom Benjamin
- Tarot Tableau Revolution by Maria Alviz Hernando
The first one is really wonderful. I feel so much better now that I've started reading it. For a very long time---in fact, since AT shut down, I haven't felt like I was a good fit for another forum but I really miss socializing and being a reader doing my "fortune telling" the way I've always done it.. Living up here in this very small RV park, and since I have considerable health and mobility problems that keep me home and not very active anymore, socializing online is important to me. Even though there were the newer ideas people were insisting had to be done by their preference of what "fortune telling" should and shouldn't be on AT there were plenty of other old style practitioners mixed in so I just didn't really feel out of place and I did my "thing" and didn't really pay that much attention. (I've often thought of myself as being oblivious to the obvious.)
This book is one I really recommend if you haven't read it yet and you like books. Newer style readers of cards and other divination tools might find it interesting and us old style folks can learn and appreciate it a lot, too. But the only little criticism I have about it is his swearing. I don't think it's necessary but I still enjoy and look forward to reading the book.
.I think Daniel may have posted something to me about the second book when I was so excited about Tarot Tableau In Benebell's book. I'm looking forward to seeing what Maria has to offer about this method in her book.
So there are my two books for this month. Does anyone else have them?

Deck of the Week Sign-up Thread, Week 456: Mar. 30 - Apr. 5
Whelp! I was going to start working through my remaining historicals, starting with Eteillas, but shopping happens when I’m not busy at work; therefore, I might or might not have ordered 4 decks on Amazon (with 2 more tucked away in my save for later). So I’m back on the new deck train! This week will be Tarot of the Unexplained: A Deck of Cryptids, Ghosts, UFOs & Other Urban Oddities. I have two fun cryptid oracles, so of course I needed a tarot too! But this turns out to have few cryptids and mostly urban legends. But let’s give it a try anyway. Suits are knockers (bigfoot’s sticks), portals, ghosts, and saucers. The suits don’t have separate creatures or stories, but they do have constellations and moon phases. (The author might not be aware that constellations and signs are now not aligned. But it makes sense to use constellations that we can see.) Courts are fans, hunters, advocates, and skeptics. Wash, shuffle, and go! What is your most important characteristic? 4 of Portals First quarter moon, I don’t know what the constellation is. The portal is a cube that reflects the ocean it is above. The deck can be a portal to new ideas and understandings, but it is static. Once I get it, it’s done. What is your strength? 9 of Knockers Waning gibbous moon and Sagittarius The deck is good at defending itself against naysayers. Like bigfoot, it does what it does and doesn’t ask for validation. Your weakness? 6 of Saucers They look like boomerangs or stealth planes. The deck is more of an artistic or physical success, less of a spiritual or helpful success. What can you teach me? 3 of Ghosts Libra It can teach me about teaching and learning about loss and mourning. How can I learn it? Fan of Ghosts By being a fan of the deck and of learning things I usually don’t learn about. What will be the outcome of our work together? Hunter of Ghosts Is this also Libra? Booklet says she is an initiate using her esoteric hand signals and summoning a powerful ghost. I will graduate from learning to understanding the deck and some of its bases. No majors but all four suits represented. Well, we’ll see where all this goes!- Rachelcat replied to fire cat pickles's topic in Deck of the Week -

25How does one use a majors-only deck?
Thank you to the next set of folks also I am currently experimenting with the majors from Botanica Tarot by Kenvin Jay Stanton, as a daily draw. I can't use the deck anyway - right now it's just beautiful floral pictures that don't spark anything for me so this is a way to start learning them i.e. which plant the image is supposed to be, and why that plant might be representing a particular card. For folks info - I have been reading several decades, but no, I'm not a Thothite, no, I don't use astrology, yes I sometimes use pip decks with a set of attributions created with input from an AT thread years ago and no, honestly, I don't want to have to be linking them back to associated minors or any other thing like that. That's just adding layers of complication I can't handle. What I guess I was really seeking was a way to "step down" from only seeing their most over-arching MAJOR attributions, into something more everyday-ish, so when, like today, I get the Devil, I can find small connections that fit my day, rather than worriedly barricade myself in the bathroom Yes, "Not Normal R Us" LOL- PathWalker replied to cuileann's topic in Tarot Talk & Technique
