I'm chuffed that my comment helped spark this and the sister video to this! Always love getting a look at decks that people find to be chatty and easy for them to read and this was no exception. I really think my Morgan Greer is my most easy to read deck ever, or probably on the same level for me at Tarot of the Magical Forest.
My spouse reminded me that I always forget to comment and present an offering to the algorithm gods because I watch you on the TV so today I came to comment first thing. Thank you for keeping me such company Sylvie. Happy pride month! 🏳️🌈
I am the worst for doing that too! I like to think my complete watch time makes up for the lack of comments, but those algorithm gods are hard to please… happy pride! 🏳️🌈
Totally agree about the Fifth Spirit, it's my go to for my daily pull! The imagery really matches the meaning of the card and ties it to everyday concepts, which makes it easier for me to understand.
I 100% agree with you that sometimes a straight RWS can be more difficult to read because I am searching for all the layers. This is the exact reason I gravitate towards TdM and pips decks when I need those straight readers with CBD TdM with its clean lines being my favorite. I can step back and separate myself from the "traditional symbols" and just look at the basics: directionality, elemental makeup, etc. Fifth Spirit is the perfect blend of something that is illustrative but not too layered that I get in my own head about it. Reading can be such an onslaught of messages sometimes that it's great to identify the ones that are to-the-point. (Though I very much enjoy the "onslaught" sort of decks.) ❤
This is such a great concept! I want to go through my collection and see how many decks fall into either category. Im sure I’ve said it before but I need to get the el dios de los tres, the excitable, interruptive energy just sounds all too familiar.
Glad you agree 🥰 I would be so interested to see if anyone has the opposite experience with some of these decks - I can't imagine the Morgan Greer being slow to talk but I'm sure there's someone out there!
If you somewhen find a word to express "simple" without sounding even a bit offending please let me know, I'm still searching for it lol. Anyway - I must agree with Morgan-Greer for sure, not long ago I took it to my work (because I have a tin version) (together with one oracle) just to try if it can help me to pull a card if there's... some situation. And I took Morgan-Greer generally only because of the fact that it's a tin version so it's small, but actually expected I would use oracle cards more (for keywords on it). But so far I actually grabbed Morgan-Greer more times and it works exactly like you say - I ask, card answers, done- I can have my snack and go back to cleanroom. And I actually had the tarot for quite some time now and basically never use it at home. Ooh, I got The Citadel oracle just recently and I totally love it! I'm looking forward to see the next video with the other kind of decks. (I mean I look forward every next video you're gonna make, but... you know, that one is related to this one lol)
"Minimalist" also applies in this case. Perhaps, "Restrained," or, "Stripped-back," as well. "Distilled" comes to mind too. I don't know which word Sylvie meant, but maybe all of them!
I'm kicking myself for not buying a Morgan Greer years ago! I think I was finally able to see beyond the aggressive 70s-ness of it, to its perfect RWS shorthand. It's my go-to "I need a quick answer" deck these days. I had a moment with the Colour Outside the Lines but it's cooled down, perhaps because the Morgan Greer came into my life. The Deviant Moon IS a feelings deck for me too. I hated it when it first came out but one day I saw cards from the borderless edition and I immediately Had To Have It. The images just push buttons before you've even had a chance to register which card you're looking at.

Marseille Tarots are usually very straightforward for me. For more specific questions about the external world. Commonsense and clear answers.
They are definitely common sense decks! I don’t ask a lot of really specific questions but I should try it with TDM

It’s such a fun deck to use! Definitely thought about it for my air decks as a chatty Gemini not gonna lie 😂
There are a few decks you mentioned i also have and feel the same about ..golden, fifth spirit, citadel❤ morgan greer yes for sure right to the point.

Man, I love that alien one! Psychedelic Space... *adds to wishlist*
Have you explored the Sacred She Tarot?? It is an innovative, insightful and utterly gorgeous deck❤
🏃♀🏃♂🏃💃🕺🤸♀👏

I'm gonna have to do a VR, this is just such a good idea! Loved this vid, Sylvie, and can't wait for the follow-up!
My grab and go is often the Happy Tarot. The meanings just jump into my head more than other RWS clones, not sure whey.
That’s such a cute little deck too!
@@TarotMagpie it really is! I don’t normally like things that are too cutesy but i do love this.
“Straightforward” or “direct” may be the word you’re looking for instead of “simple” 🙂
"Minimalist" also applies in this case. Perhaps, "Restrained," or, "Stripped-back," as well. "Distilled" comes to mind too. I don't know which word Sylvie meant, but maybe all of them!
Ooh distilled is good!!
