Rider Tarot ?????????

[kathy]

Can anyone tell me which Rider Tarot deck to get.

There seems to be dozens

Orginal
and about 4 other types.

I am buying these because I am new to Tarot so I want the easiest and can anyone tell me the best place to buy them?

Thanks

Hi Kathy,
try the original rider waite tarot. There is a newer one with bolder colours which is the same though. Donna (on this forum) sells tarot card decks from memory and she may have one in stock.
Alternately look for this set as a good starter, there is also plenty of info on the web about this deck and it's symbolism and a series I have started on here as ell but have yet to finish. (it's on my list of things to do!!lol)
Here is some info on the deck for you

This is the mythic deck I mentioned http://www.astroamerica.com/t-myth.html
This is the gilded which I use http://www.aeclectic.net/tarot/cards/gilded/
Have a look and see which one resonates with you. One will try and talk to you when you see the pictures. That is the deck for you.

Hope that helps
Christine
