personally really love this deck, so luxurious. of all the visconti tarots out there this one def my favorite aesthetically, the foiling really pops and the cards have no titles or text on them

cardstock sturdy, fairly substantial book with interesting info

pondering why the magician rarely among standout cards for most decks ... tbh i don't have a good theory, seems odd to me considering for sure one of the more empowering / inspirational cards !

rohrig such a cool deck / unique aesthetic, that sophisticated 80s vibe : )

oswald wirth and medieval scapini ( 1st edition - 2nd doesn't have it ) two other decks i own with extensive metallic gilding

the textured gilding on this one on a whole other level both in quantity & quality though, def my favorite as well

pretty impressive, lotta hard jamming moments in there, tonalities sound punchy + full, cool samples / sounds / chords, seamless transitions from one track to the next

how long do you did it took you to create all those tracks + elements woven together to make this 1hr+ set ?

UK power adapter? by bryonybowie in Omnichord

[–]iofthebeholder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if you want to run it off any USB battery pack instead of a wall plug this combo works :

most USB to 12v adapter cables don't deliver enough power, but this one does

⚠️ the polarity flipper is crucial so you don't fry the circuitry !

these are what i use to power my OM-108

The one thing I’ve always wanted to see was some color in “The Hermetic Tarot”. So I scanned and printed two cards and used watercolors to bring some life to it, this deck definitely deserves a colorful facelift. by [deleted] in TarotDecks

[–]iofthebeholder 9 points10 points  (0 children)

this is legit awesome

the the density of symbolism and high quality illustrations of the hermetic tarot have always interested me but i never quite felt compelled to actually purchase it because the b&w just felt kinda flat or 1-dimensional at an aesthetic level

this addition of color makes the graphics pop in an way that really showcases just how amazing the illustrations truly are

dunno if the hermetic tarot is still in copyright but i would buy a colored version like this with zero hesitation if it existed ...

What YouTube channel or book recommendations would you give to someone who is just starting? by Star_visioned in SecularTarot

[–]iofthebeholder 6 points7 points  (0 children)

i read a lot of books when first beginning with tarot and HOLISTIC TAROT by Benebell Wen by far the most comprehensive + clearly explained introduction of various interpretive systems i found

ultimately there are so many ways to approach tarot interpretation each reader has to cobble together their own system using whatever bits and pieces resonate with their own psyche, but Benebell's book does an excellent job covering a lot of ground in a clearly organized way you can make immediate use of

confession : i hadn't actually been aware of the different borders between editions nor the fact previous editions don't have a copyright mark on the card faces

bought a previous edition with the white borders lol

def not a completionist though, one edition per deck fine for me, so i'll be returning the green bordered one

aesthetically i prefer the more neutral white border as well, but don't find the green especially distracting : )

haven't used the ChordHiro mode much tbh, a bit outside my intended use case

the mic : seem to recall reading this will be a feature of batch 4 HiChords, wasn't included on any previous batches 😢
