How-dee

Post by SteveGus »

I'm another refugee fro Aeclectic Tarot, where I went by my oldest online handle, 'ihcoyc'.

I live in Southern Indiana across from Louisville. I started reading Tarot around 1974 with an Eden Gray book and the 1JJ Swiss deck. I use non-esoteric decks and historical decks almost exclusively, although I am not a Tarot de Marseille purist.

I grew up in Canada, though, which brought me into contact with some basic French. I still read classical French fairly easily, the less slang the better, although my ability to hold a conversation in French or compose French is somewhat decayed. I also read medieval Latin fairly well, better than classical Latin.

Ssh, I'm sure I heard of a US politician not long ago being regarded with a certain level of suspicion because he could speak French.

Hi SteveGus and Welcome :wave:, I used to be able to read and speak a little Latin years ago but I've completely forgot most of it now :32(30):
