why is the same for all: because i like them and bought them, so i have them around to use.
which ones: can't be arsed to give the whole list, but these days i'm using tarot of timeless truth, the manga tarot (lo scarabeo), and the enchanted tarot by zerner & farber. i also use non-tarot oracle decks.
Do you think individual decks (instances of the same design) have their own personalities - like, do you expect your copy of Rider-Waite to behave differently from my copy of Rider-Waite?
no. i think i have individual personalities. or, uh, individual reactions to different artwork. :)
Do you use different decks for different readings?
only by mood, not topic.
Do you put the Crowley and Waite decks together and shake the jar to see if they'll fight? (Don't laugh, I've heard of people doing it.)
no, i don't care for either of those decks or about either of those people as personalities. (most of my decks are rws variations though.)
Does a deck work better if you receive it as a gift than if you buy it? Is it necessary, or unthinkable, to steal your deck? (All positions I've heard people advocate seriously.)
no. i call bollocks and superstition. and stealing is wrong, kids.
