How do you choose your decks?

Tarot

Hi everyone,

I am a self-taught intuitive who uses both tarot and oracle decks to inform my practice. I generally change decks with each new Moon (along with my altars) unless I feel guided to keep using the same deck.

This year, I’ve decided to do a deep dive into Tarot. I have 7 different decks. I have worked with one for decades - 30+ years - and I have some I barely have used! Since I am pausing on using the oracle decks, each New Moon I ask myself, my guides what deck to explore or what deck wants to work with me. Sometimes I get an obvious answer. Other times, not so much.

This lunation, 3 days before the New Moon, it became “obvious” that I was done working with the current deck. I did a final reading with it and thanked it for working with me and then as I went to put it away, I intutitvely felt called to use a new deck. I generally ask for confirmation and then pull a card to see if we are attuned.

I am curious as to how others choose?

Or do you only use one deck?

Sensational Sunday Sierra,

Glad to see you in another post.:blush: I have 3 tarot decks that I currently use (I have 2 that I keep for the aesthetic purposes, I do not use them), and I have 2 different Lenormand sets. I keep all 5 within easy reach and just whichever one seems to call me at the moment.

Awww, thank you! And thanks for chiming in!

Sometimes, I feel like I vibe so hard with a certain deck and other times, it feels a little disconnected. Maybe at the end of this year, I will have worked with all 7 of the decks enough to know if they are all meant to be used for my practice or just meant to be be pretty. lol I absultely love decks and could easily have more if I didnt control my urges!

Superb Sunday Sierra,

I have an Earth Woman deck that I have not used yet. I’m still learning the RWS imagery, and not ready for the Earth Woman deck yet. I do have a United States of Tarot, Created by Elena Lee McCune (I found this on Amazon). I will probably NEVER use this one. This is just a collector/historical type deck. If you look it up, you’ll understand when you see the images.

Have FUN!!!

Please check in on my post Tarot Dailies March 2026 :flower_playing_cards: . I post questions for the week. Each day, I check-in, post my “answer” to the question and look at other people’s takes on their pulls. Please come join us!!:blush: Question for tomorrow is already up. Post early, tonight if you want.
