If you are new to tarot divination, I highly recommend learning to read the cross. Out of the entire range of tarot card spreads, The Cross is a spread you will use forever.

Without Harris, it is quite possible that the Crowley THOTH tarot would not have been published; or at the very least it would not have received as much attention.

I am an advocate of the Aleister Crowley tarot deck for several reasons; however, when choosing a tarot deck what really matters is if you are in some way moved by the cards.

It is most important that the tool you choose to use is something that you can identify with.
