Tarot card deck for a beginner?
For a beginner, which tarot card deck should I buy?
Also, tell me if it will be available in India.
thanks.

For a beginner the best deck to start with is the Rider Waite. I am sure it will be available in India.
Check Amazon in India or any spiritual store or even a book-store.
I have noticed your threads are all about questions and there are links of other sites..... relevant or not to your question.
Are you perhaps posting ad hoc in all forums in order to justify a certain number of posts to obtain a free software?
If that is the case, I am sure it will not work.
All posts should have a purpose and continuity rather than just throwing questions in the air.
Good luck.

First deck
My first deck was the dragon deck - primarily because I just loved the look of it. Granted, it was *not* a good deck to learn from, and I struggled for years until I began collecting other decks. There are two now that I learn from very well - one is a fantasy deck so the look of it is still beautiful, but has images that mirror the Rider-Waite [which I have no fondness for], closely enough that I can study individual cards online or in books that use Rider-Waite, and can still understand and relate.

hey there
I suggest Raider Waite. Go online and find decks you think are pretty, look through all the card images and choose the one you feel you can connect with. Just let intuition guide you, if you get feelings from the card images then that's the right deck for you. As far as learning goes, well you are already on this site! Lots of people are here to help, and your new deck should come with a booklet to help guide you a bit. Practice with 3 cards spreads, Past, Present, Future first. find some willing friends and have at it! Practice makes perfect and you won't open that third eye unless you try.

This is a very old posting, but it is possibly one of the most common questions asked by beginner readers.
The general advice has always been to begin with the Rider Waite pack in order to compile your own Tarot dictionary of meanings for each card, before moving onto an alternative pack.
If indeed you want to move on to one of the alternatives.
Even advanced readers fall back on using the Rider Waite pack if or when needed, so I do not feel that the manufacturers of the basic pack have any reason to fear that it will become obsolete or irrelevant, any time soon.
