The Intuitive Tarot
Cilla Conway
Connections, 2004
I received this deck as part of what I refer to as "The Gift of Golden Dawn." Not all of the decks are GD strictly, but most are either GD or Thoth in nature. Even those with a slight RW flavor.
The cards are a nice size and have lovely purple backs with a simple oval in silver ink. The use of colors is very interesting and I really find the artwork to be of good quality. There is enough detail on the cards to allow for the intuitive juices to flow (so to speak), but not so much that one feels influenced.
I had a very long week at work, full of meetings and deadlines, and was not as alert and awake as I normally like to be when working with a deck. But this deck still was "easy" to read. I didn't feel coerced to use RWS meanings (this deck is labeled as RWS tradition). And frankly, that is one of my major peeves with most RWS decks. But that is a rant for a different day!All in all, this is a good deck and one I will be reaching for on those days when I am just tired and want to get lost in the stories of the cards.
