I'm so in love with my new Tuxedo Infinity Vision Linux computer. It's is truly THE BEST machine I've ever purchased.

Here's my current desktop. The color story gives me vibes of autumn, Homer & a Brian Eno light box.

Stopped by the local bookstore-cafe & one thing led to another....

"It's so off & on! What am I doing wrong?" they said in distress.

"It's not you. It's their repetitive cycle. And they're the one who has to want to change." #tarot #tarotdemarseille #relationship

@anthracite Thanks so much!

Here's a great Youtube interview with renowned tarot artist Wilfried Houdouin! Don't understand French, even with subtitles?

Just copy & paste the transcript into Google translate!

The amazing TdM artist Wilfried Houdouin's (@tarotdemarseille) famed Millennium deck's now available as a nice kit, with lovely satin-finish cards & a French guidebook by popular tarot author Florian Parisse!

Long-time friends know I'm a big fan of Wilfried's deck& the publisher @editionstrajectoire_officiel has a reputation for good quality projects.

If you're a TdM fan & one of Wilfred's collectors, you'll want to get this on your radar.

In memoriam: The Guardian's obit for Rachel Pollack

#tarot #tarotreading #tarotauthor #rachelpollack

So far I've gotten at least 2 messages from astute followers here who note the similarity between the antique Bolognese Al Soldato on the left & famed contemporary tarot artist Nigel Jackson's recent Rose Tarot.

I'm so happy you noticed!

Sometimes people think Nigel's card images are idiosyncratic or "wrong;" here's a fine example displaying that they are instead deeply informed by his profound knowledge of tarot history.

Do you have any of Nigel's decks?

What Tolkien book's on your nightstand for this evening?

@loscarabeotarot releases another limited edition gem: a Bolognese Minchiate from 1775, the al Cigno. Set to ship March 25!

Wow! I've pre-ordered.
How about you?

@hula_doll Vintage playing cards are often sold on ebay, among members of playing card clubs like 52+Joker, the IPCS, the English Playing Card Society & the German BDK.

Some smaller auction houses specialize in cards & there are several notable private dealers like Jean Darquenne or Two for His Heels (Steven Bacon) on Ruby Lane & a few little hobby shops. 🥰

I have only about 400 various decks, but serious collectors like Yves Le Mains or Joop Muller have thousands. This deck belongs to my friend Yves in Paris. 🥰 Enjoy!
