Thomson-Leng Tarot
I really need to unclutter around my chair more often than I do. Cleaning up the stack of books, electronic devices, and other detritus that has stacked up around my chair in the common room of the house uncovered my long-missing copy of the Thomson-Leng Tarot deck.
This was a deck I had searched for a long time, as it was referenced in a number of the books I studied beginning back in 1969, but I had been unable to find a source for it, literally, for decades.
Around the time I opened Babbling Brooke Readings, I found a listing for a reproduction offered by Tarot Collectibles, and promptly ordered it.
I was excited when it arrived and had planned on making an unboxing video about it, where I would talk some about the deck and its history.
Before I could do that, however, COVID-19 hit, and the pandemic response locked everything down for an extended period of time, and the unopened deck vanished into the Black Hole near my chair.
As I was straightening up “the pile” just moments ago, I reached under the chair and touched a box — the elusive, missing, Thomson-Leng Tarot deck.
I was so excited to find it again, that I opened it to actually look at the deck I have owned now for around 5 years yet had never seen the cards themselves. One of the printed inserts also mentioned the website, linked herein.
Sometime in the near future, I will do a video about the deck, but not tonight, as it’s already past bedtime (earlier migraine and the fact that I did manage about 4 hours of sleep earlier in the day, which greatly reduced said migraine notwithstanding.)
I’ll get to that video sometime. But not tonight, and not likely mañana.
