Tarot ~ The Modern Classics?
Vložit
- čas přidán 15. 08. 2024
- In The Hermit’s Cave Facebook group I posed the question ‘What tarot decks do you consider to be Modern Classics’? There is an interesting response, and here in this video I talk about my decks that I consider to be modern classics and the reasons why.
As someone who battles anxiety, depression, PTSD with schizo-affect, and periodic psychosis and other mental health conditions, I love the Osho Zen tarot, and I don't feel a need to grumble about a single card labeled schizophrenia. Thank you for bringing that up.
Such an interesting topic! I think I must be the only person who really doesn’t like Light Seer’s Tarot. This video convinced me to get The Llewellyn Tarot finally.
Yaaay! Such a beautiful deck
No, I'm the same with the lightseers. It's an attractive deck and I see why people like it, but I don't think I could ever connect with it. Maybe when I was younger.
@@tizzas1232 same with me
100% agree
I loved watching this back and seeing your modern classics, I have a fair few of them 😊 when you said at the beginning your favourite thing to do is sit and play with cards at your desk I thought Snap! 😆 sometimes I just get decks out and sit looking through each card or shuffle them. Another fave thing of mine to do is put the cards back in order…I know, weird 😂 I may do a VR to this one 🥰❤️
LOL ok good, this is not just me! I really was starting to wonder....
If you'd asked me to make this list a few years ago, I probably would have had both the Hanson-Roberts and the Robin Wood Tarot decks on it, but now...I don't know. Lately they've seemed a bit dated to me in a way that the Morgan Greer, for all of its '70s pornstache aesthetic, doesn't. I'm no longer as convinced that they'll really stand the test of time in the same way that I feel the Morgan Greer and the Aquarian will. I can't even begin to put my finger on what exactly the difference may be, but nonetheless, I find that my feelings about their longevity has begun to change as the years go by.
A very interesting topic, Simon. Thank you!
🤣🤣🤣 pornstache! So true. Still have mine
I think for me that those 2 are a bit dated in too sweet, dated hair, too many blondes...the MG just managed to stay ahead of all that theme-type stuff, the people are somber/neutral, borderless! and the colors are still "wow". I have the RW book (pre-owned) but never ever wanted those 2 you mentioned. MG was the first deck I bought and kept in the early 90s.
I would have added the Cosmic Tarot, Robin Wood, Connolly, Anna K, Morgan-Greer, Sharman-Caselli, Golden Universal and Hanson-Roberts! Great choices and video! 🌟🌟🌟
I went straight away to get the Daniloff! I prefer the New Palladini to the Aquarian, but it may not yet be a classic. So many options--Anna K, Margaret Peterson, Gill Tarot! Thanks for your ideas!
“I don’t know why I’m pointing to his Willie when I say that” 🤣🤣 too funny xx
😝
Watching this 3 years on and it's still so spot on! Love your very personal stories with each deck. Valenza's incredible Trionfi della Luna has unseated his Deviant Moon for my choice as a Modern classic but whichever it is from him he's on that list. Really fun thanks!
Glad you enjoy it! 😍
Thank you Simon. I never heard of the Daniloff deck and I think it's so beautiful.
It really is 😍
The Llewellyn tarot - my first love! 🥰
My very best friends - The Light Seers tarot, Osho Zen tarot (with wonderful book)
Forest and Enchantment tarot, Oak, Ash and Thorn tarot,
Vision Quest tarot, The Muse tarot ... 💚
I would like to have, very much: Tarot of Echoes, Le Tarot Arthurien (Ana Tourian❤)
The Dark Mansion tarot, The Field tarot, Line Scape tarot, Meraki tarot,
The Spacious tarot 🧡
Thank you, Simon. for the inspiration and love!💥
Thanks for sharing. All great decks!
Coming from Sandra's VR, as I am beginning my list for myself! What a fabulous video and idea to share the Modern Classics, Simon!
Wonderful choices! Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it Mascha 🙏🏼❤️
I love the Llewelyn Tarot! So gorgeous
Agreed!
A wonderful video Simon! Like you, IJJ Swiss was my first deck, I had the boxed set, then I got the James Bond 007 boxed set, then Morgan Greer, then the Aquarium. The Llewellyn deck (trimmed) is my most favorite Tarot, with Druidcraft as my 2nd favorite. So I felt really in tune with your view of Modern Classic Tarot decks. Thank you for all your amazing videos.
Thank you 🙏🏻
So happy to see the MPC edition of the 1JJ Swiss T de M. Takes the edge off the white backgrounds of the original. Thanks for this great presentation of your Modern Classics, Simon. Best, Anne
It’s a wonderful version. Thank you for watching Anne 🙏🏼
I really enjoy your channel, thank you for your thoughtful and relevant content 👍💕🌞
Thank you 🙏🏻❤️
Such a great video. I also have a few of these... hearts delight to watch you share your love
🙏🏻❤️
You've shown some beautiful decks here, and a very cool video idea!
Glad you enjoyed! 😍
I'm only up to the first deck so far =) so many folk on CZcams mention the Llewellyn as a favourite. I love it because - me too. What a stunning deck in every way
Aaaw thank you for you kind words and for watching. I’ve always appreciated your support 🙏🏻❤️
I love the Morgan Greer Tarot and yes, there is a version published by Morgan Press that has very narrow black borders. I have a copy from years ago, The Chariot is printed off-centre which I think is a common fault with it. I think it was just the first edition that had the black borders.
Keep hold of that!
@@the_hermits_cave definitely, I’ve no intention of getting rid of it 😊
My 1st deck was Morgan-Greer; just couldn't connect (horrors) with the Yellow Box RWS my partner at the time used. I bought another copy (M/G) a year later; the 1st copy is strictly my personal deck. The Deviant Moon is the only deck that comes close to replacing it. Other Tarot decks bought last century include the Aquarian, since rehomed, the Medieval Scapini, looking to rehome, and the Sacred Rose (LE majors only) which intrigues me, but is rarely used.
Mine are: Universal Waite, Hanson Roberts, Motherpeace, the Gilded Royale and Tarot Illuminati. Just to name my 5, I certainly have many more...
What a video! Hermits cave is my favourite tarot channel 😀
Aaaw thank you! Means a lot 🙏🏻❤️
That was wonderful. The only one I'd add is the Tarot Classic, but once we add Stuart Kaplan...how would one choose from among the plethora of gems.
I loved this video! ❤
Thank you my friend 🙏🏼❤️
Your blue edged Morgan-Greer looks beautiful!💙 I agree with you about the Light Seer's Tarot. It's going to be a classic in the future, I think!
You're fun :)...really enjoyed this Simon, Blessed Be and Happy New Year! ~ Sarah 🧜♀💜
I love light seers tarot 🧚 and i feel great joy while i am using it.. however i fall in love with mary el tarot thank you for introducing me this gorgeous deck and i will buy this deck immediately 😍 love you ♥️
Thank you Simon I love your videos it feels like just having a chat with a friend- yes I talk back to you.
My first tarot many many moons ago was also the 1JJ no idea where that ended up I think I gave it to a friend, when I got more into using tarot as a tool for inner work rather than just divination and bought my 2nd and 3rd the Thoth and Gareth Knight and Sander Littel’s Tarot 1985! I then bought a RWS and 15 years ago a beautiful round deck ‘Songs for the journey Home’ from two amazing ladies from NZ who I met at a MBS fair. collected a couple more early 2000’s Glastonbury, Druid craft. Last year I really got into some of the beautiful decks that were walked through online, and now have a selection of decks for readings and esoteric work. There’s so many I would love to own especially the Winter Waite, I only saw it late last year so missed the original - I’m late to the tarot online community/party. I am definitely going to get the Glitter Winter Waite, when it’s available- it is stunning.
Love your choices here, I think I would definitely add The Wildwood Tarot which I just love and having received as a gift this past Christmas am loving exploring it. Yes Lightseers’ is gorgeous, uplifting and inspiring. The one deck I regret not buying when given the opportunity is the SOL (servants of the light) tarot Dolores Ashcroft-Nowicki as I had and was using the GK one for path work I passed; it has the most beautiful hermit. It’s now selling for ridiculous amounts.
So most of my decks are probably not modern classics in a wider sense but the ones mentioned here are amongst my favourite familiar ones. One last deck that I have to mention again a RWS based is Martha Millers round deck hand painted with veg dyes a little Indy deck that I bought last year and I adore.
Peace be with you 🕯
Beautiful choices for modern classic tarot decks. Thank you, Simon!
Great video Simon! I have a few of these decks "kicking around" , but since joining the FB group I love digging them up and rediscovering them. Brings back a lot of nostalgic feelings and memories. Thanks for making us think about these older decks again : )
You’re welcome my friend, thank you for watching.
This has been a delightful video to watch while making holiday cards. I've been wanting to talk about decks that have accumulated collective knowledge and how they feel more accessible and powerful but wasn't sure how to frame it. Modern classics is perfect! Thanks for your videos, sharing your collection, and for adding to the collective. I may add on to it myself. Take care and stay well 😊
You’re welcome, thanks for watching 😉
I appreciate your thoughts on this very interesting topic, Simon! As always, I learn new information from you and am inspired go hying off to explore more decks! As I recall, my first deck was the Arthurian although it may have been Motherpeace. I still love them both. Personally, I would add Motherpeace and Daughters of the Moon to my modern classics list. Thanks again for a great topic!
Thank's, i have somme or thème.....and i love their...💐
Thank you, I have most of those older ones
Great! 😍
Beautifully done. I have most of them including Light Seers!
This was cool. Thank you so much. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Recently found your channel and am so enjoying your content thank you so much for sharing! I would be so interested to learn how you colour edge your beautiful decks :)
Aaw thank you, it’s lovely to have you here. Thank you for watching 🙏🏼❤️
ah Simon i’m glad you have showed these. I bought a supposed an original 1971 RwS deck from ebay about two years ago but i’ve seen none that are like these, there super thin, has like linen lines through it and the colors are soft pale but with a soft brightness to them. Would love to be able to compare this deck with anyone that may have an original 1971 RWS deck. These are some beautiful decks. Love all your card casings.
i think i know which Morgan Greer deck your talking about it’s a mini deck with small red book called tarot to go i think.
I agree with your choices
Loved this video, Simon! Thank you! I too was lucky enough to finally find the original Mythic Tarot deck at a not too shabby of a price. It was on my wish list for the longest time. I almost caved a few times and settled for the updated version, so glad I did not have to! It is my most favorite deck. I also found the hardback book! All the decks you showed are in my top faves, with the exception of the Osho Zen. Just not my cup of tea.
Pleased you was able to find a copy at a good price.
I still have my original with the spread cloth I think it was, and the book, box set. I unfortunately lost the actual box though, go figure lol
So awesome video 🌺Thank you
You’re welcome. Thank you for watching 🙏🏻❤️
And I agree about the Lightseer Tarot. That deck, along with This Might Hurt and Everyday Enchantment really bring Tarot up to date, without losing any of its power.
You are right about the bordered rare version of Morgan Greer. I think I saw that on what used to be Mindful Tarot's channel was Lisa now Esther and cannot recall her new channel name.
Yes! Thats where I saw it too : )
Her channel is still called “Mindful Tarot”, and well worth a visit.
Hello. I'm new to Tarot and new to your channel. I'm glad to have stumbled across your channel as I am learning alot about the different decks that are available just from your informative video content. I love your accent and your voice is soothing. You should do an asmr tarot video 😁. Thanks for all that you do.
Aaaw thank you! And welcome 😍🙏🏼
My latest favorite decks are, the L goliath Tarot, The Osho Zen,And the Native American wisdom tarot... but there are so many great decks out there it's hard to keep up
P
I would LOVE a 1st edition Daniloff. Such a dope deck.
It’s EVERYTHING! 😍
♥️♥️♥️ you channel Simon it is the best.Plus Facebook to what more can A Tarot girl want!Of to sort my decks.Stay safe😷🌈🙏🏻
😘
Some great choices here, Simon! May actually do a live on this topic with Martyn! Or a VR
Oooh let me know if you do and it’s on IG and I’ll try and be there!
@@the_hermits_cave we already did one. Next week we’re both picking a second modern classic. This is fun, and maybe in 30 years time, we’ll know… hahahaha
I love Elle from sacred seed. Wish she would come back to us!!
Loved this video so much.💕
Aaaw thank you 🙏🏼
I love that brilliant blue edging you did on the morgan-greer deck. Could i ask what marker you used to do it?
A chisel tipped sharpie 😍
As i is almost our birthdays non? the mythic was my 1st deck, so We're both modern classic, so very kind of you to say LOL
I have to share my moment of misunderstanding of your beautiful accent. You said the deck was of oil and canvas imagines....I heard boil and fungus....lol....I immediately rewound. 😅
🤣🤣🤣 That’s hilarious
Oooh i want them all
for someone with smaller hands do you think they will ever make a light seekers for smaller hands, not a mini but something a cm or so shorter?
I wouldn’t have thought so, but you never know 🤔
I haven’t watched the entire video. Do you have the Robin Wood tarot?
I do!
Isn't that a classic too? How about Hanson R?
Is there a video walk through of Robin Wood and the spell book is fantastic. Hanson is classic as well, imo. Motherpeace tarot! There are so many.
You should list the decks with time stamps
Happy weekend to you Simon. How do you keep track of all the decks in your collection? Do you keep a spreadsheet, or just remember them all?
I store them in Libib as a catalog system. But I remember most of the information about them.
The Daniloff's Tarot is my favorite, too.
It’s a beauty 😍
I absolutely loved the Daniloff tarot deck, but it appears to be out of print and into the realm of overpriced.
Im citing you many many times in my new book. Can i send you a free xopy when its published in july?
I’m intrigued!
@@the_hermits_cave would you be interested in providing photos of certain cards from certain decks and be named in the credits of the book for photography? You are mentioned many times in a couple chapters and it'd be nice to have something from you in there, and as I'm stating that your channel is a visual resource for my study I think it's apt you be credited with any pictures of cards I include. Idk lmk. We can chat through email if you like and I can send you parts of the draft if you'd like to read it before agreeing to providing pictures of your cards and possibly collection.
where did you get your short smokeless incense?
Amazon, it’s called Morning star!
I was so excited to get off work to watch this. I tried to watch it on mute at work 😂😂
I love Osho Zen. It was my second purchase.
I don’t own deviant moon, but it’s definitely a classic. I have other decks by Patrick Valenza that I enjoy. He’s amazing.
