Alright, guys, gather ’round, let me tell you about my latest adventure. So, I’ve been diving deep into this thing called the Medieval Scapini Tarot. Yeah, I know, sounds fancy, right? But trust me, it’s been a wild ride.
First things first, I got my hands on this deck. The artwork? Absolutely stunning. I mean, each card is like a mini-masterpiece. The artist, Luigi Scapini, he really poured his heart into this. I heard somewhere that he even used one of the cards to tell his own life story, mixing in his wife and daughter. How cool is that?
So, I started by just looking at the cards, you know, getting a feel for them. Every time I picked one up, I noticed something new. It’s like, the more you look, the more you see. I spent hours just flipping through them, soaking it all in. There’s so much detail.
Then, I decided to get serious and try some readings. I dug around online and found some guides. A lot of people say that starting with a Rider Waite-Smith deck is easier. Apparently, the Medieval Scapini deck can be a bit tricky. But where is fun in easy, right? I learned that you’re supposed to knock on the deck three times to clear the energy. Sounds weird, but hey, I’m all in.
Honestly, the best way to learn this stuff is by doing it. I did a bunch of readings for myself, for my friends, even for my cat. Okay, maybe not the cat. But you get the idea. I tried different spreads, jotting down notes in my journal like a mad scientist. Each reading was a new puzzle to solve.
I also found out that this deck is based on the Middle Ages of Europe. There’s a ton of symbolism in there. I read about blending and pairing cards, reading lines—old-school stuff. It’s like stepping back in time, but with, you know, cards. I found out that some people do these readings online now. Maybe I’ll give that a shot sometime.
I stumbled upon a forum where people were discussing the Medieval Scapini Tarot. Some were saying it’s a bit advanced for beginners, but I’m stubborn. I kept at it, and slowly, things started to click. It’s like learning a new language, but instead of words, you’re using pictures and symbols.
My Big Takeaway
- Get the deck and just start exploring. Don’t be afraid to dive in.
- Do readings—lots of them. Practice makes perfect. This is the most important part of this journey.
- Take notes. Seriously, write everything down. It helps.
- Don’t be afraid to look stuff up. The internet is your friend. Use it to find new inspiration.
So, yeah, that’s my journey with the Medieval Scapini Tarot so far. It’s been a blast, and I’m still learning. If you’re curious, give it a try. Who knows what you’ll discover?
And hey, if you do, let me know how it goes. We can swap stories.
Until next time, keep shuffling!
