I everyone! I'm Carmen (she/her), and I'm an admin here at tarotreading. I came over from imzy (rip) and I'm excited to be here! I'm looking to continue to connect with others with similar interests in tarot and share our experiences, advice, etc. My favorite deck is Tarot of the Trees, but I often use my Gilded Tarot deck. Both are beautiful decks that I enjoy using. I had been interested in tarot for a number of years before I actually got into it because I felt drawn to it. It's hard to explain, but I was so drawn to it that I was like, I guess I should get a deck and see what happens! I've been having fun in our imzy group, so I'm happy to move over here. I used to only do self readings, but I've started doing readings for friends and some readings in our imzy group. I'm excited to be here with all of you! <3

I followed the community from Imzy (I was mywitfailsme)
She/her. You can call me by my name Trenna or my username or any short form of it. I went by Mandy for years from this username
I hope to find different experiences with tarot from the members
I like tarot as a guide, I like to use it as a way to prompt myself and other to use their own insight to examine their lives. Not as a way to get the answers
I've been reading for a long time. I grew up sharing my mom's decks. Except for those 5 years I fell into Christianity and then left.
My favourite deck is Revelations.
One of the things that I think distinguishes my approach is that I never read the genders of the cards and I don't think of them as say father/mother/etc. I tend to think of them as the stereotypical traits placed on the genders they're based on.

A little anecdote related to that:

Recently my mom did a reading and sent me the cards and asked for my interpretation and after when we were talking about it, she said "Did you see all the men in that reading?" I responded with "What men?" and she was like "All those kings and knights?"
Me, "Oh, I don't look at the genders on the cards. You see that there, that was the [personality trait] I mentioned."
Mom: "I didn't even see it that way. I saw it as someone else."

I'm still so excited that this community moved from Imzy to Dreamwidth. I was Hysteria on that site.

You can call me Nicole if you like. She/Her. Most of my experience with tarot came from Imzy. I'd been interested in it for a long time but never went out and got a deck or anything. I'd love to see everyone's thought process while reading, maybe some pointers for people interested in it, and definitely a weekly or thereabouts post for people to have a reading and for readers to practice.

Hey folks.

I was TheLizardQueen on Imzy and had a different username in the tarot community. I've been reading Tarot for close to 15 years I guess? A little known fact about me is that I collect tarot decks.

Hello!

[greydragonmagic]

You might recognise me from Imzy - I was the leader of /tarot over there under the same username. I created this community to allow our group to survive beyond the closure of Imzy and I'm also an admin here.

My name is Ezra and I use he/him pronouns. You can also call me by my username or greydragon, whatever works. I've been reading tarot for more or less two years. I hope this group will become a place for sharing knowledge and experiences where people can discuss different approaches to tarot.

Personally, I view tarot not so much as means of fortune telling but as a sort of introspective exercise that can help nudge people in the right direction when they are in need of advice and personal reflection. I think it can be very therapeutic as well as serve as a tool to inspire creativity!

hi, i'm here from imzy, and go by ray or ziv; i was an occasional contributor in /tarot and did the moonbeam cafe tarot thursdays.

my pronouns are they/them.

my personal approach to tarot is definitely weighted more toward the "intuitive" aspect, and i like to use my two favorite decks, the silicon dawn tarot and the enchanted map oracle, together.

i'm excited to be here to watch others discuss, explore, and grow with regards to their relationship with tarot.
