Top Ten Signs of Tarot Addiction
© 2001 A.K. Cosgrove
********************************************************
1. You haunt fabric store scrap bins, searching for velvet or silk with
which to make pouches or bags for your deck.
2. The number of Tarot books in your household outnumbers the fiction and
the cookbooks by at least 3-to-1.
3. You choose your purse on the "Can I or can I not fit my traveling deck
in here and still have room for everything else?" evaluation plan.
4. You have a traveling deck in the first place.
5. You refer to good days as "Ten of Pents" days; bad days as "Ten of
Swords" or "Tower" days.
6. You habitually chat about creating theme decks based on your favorite
movies, TV shows, or books--and argue heatedly with like-minded
friends about whether Lwaxana Troi (of Star Trek) should be the Queen of
Cups or the Queen of Pentacles, whether Ripley (from the Alien franchise)
should be Strength or the Queen of Wands, whether...well, you get the idea.
7. Your family members and friends NEVER purchase a deck for you without
first checking to see if you own it.
8. Your birthday/holiday Wish Lists contain tarot decks, books, boxes to
hold your decks, or $cash$ so you can attend the upcoming Tarot Convention.
9. You've talked your way out of a ticket by explaining, "Officer, I'm a
really good driver. The reason I was weaving is because I just got this new
deck and I couldn't wait to look through it..."
10. When browsing auction sites, you mull whether or not you should
purchase tarot lots (groups of cards) by telling yourself,
"Okay, I have four of those decks but I DON'T have the other five..."
