The best part of your videos is that you make the listener feel like a friend, and not a student. Your conversational tone is just wonderful.

The SKT tarot truly stands with the Marseille, RWS and Thoth as a timeless system with it's own spirited offerings. It's a privilege to be a steward of these cards. Thank you for another exciting educational series. It is a scholarly undertaking that I can take on thanks to your masterful instruction. 🙏

Thank you for kind words, though the reality is there are so many incredible modern decks that are much better. The only reason this series is including the SKT with the other three systems is because it's my deck, my KZfaq channel, and my video series, haha. So I'm using the TdM, RWS, and Thoth to give further context for operating the SKT. =p Lots of love!

Lot's of love to you, Benebell! I know that you weren't meaning to convey that, and you're sweet to nod to other modern decks. I stand by my words... You wait and see... 😎

Thank you so much for this exposition of the diverse meanings from these 4 different elemental aces from 4 different Tarot systems. I have spent so much time with the RWS and I'm delightfully getting aquatinted with the SKT( which I get more out of SKT than anything else) I find it so refreshing to have this inventory taken of Tarot Metaphysics. I am such a proud owner of my Vitruvian SKT deck, it gives me a ridiculously powerful link to the best teacher I have ever encountered, multifaceted divinity! I mean between "The Tao of Craft" the SKT deck for preliminary and postliminary Divination and it's phenomenal Book of maps, I have at my disposal amazing tools for endless Sigil crafting, self exploration of personal and transpersonal consciousness, and the keys to unlock further study and learning into pretty much, what I ambitiously feel, is any system of Spirituality or Soul Craft. Thank you so much for everything! Much peace and many blessings 🙏

Slowly working my way through your work. This video is super cool and insightful! Re: the bread of life symbolism, as a hobbyist baker I would've interpreted the ace of swords as the yeast spurred into action to provide the rise, or maybe as the action of kneading to build up a gluten structure. (I extremely rarely add extra fats to my doughs so my instinct goes against yours on this one!) Scepters could be leavening, but my instinct is that it's the heat of the oven like all breads need. Really cool video, got me thinking about my deck in all sorts of new and interesting ways! Thank you!

I cannot thank you enough for this video!!! I really appreciate the format because I feel that really helped me take it all in. Also, showing the four different systems in that way that you presented it was very beneficial in regards to understanding the nuances between the different decks. I just hope that all of the videos that you make for this series are/stay available on KZfaq but I also understand that you put a lot of work into these so do what you have to do ;) ~LOVE IT~

I'm interested in seeing the public response to this video series and how it makes me feel, lol. =) Then I will have more information, data, and insight for making a decision as to how this series will progress. No matter how it progresses, though, I definitely want to see it to completion, if for no one else, my own interest!

Oh Benebell this is what I needed. We all learn differently this I learned while learning, some visually some experiential some research and reading and some listening. I learn through all of these ways, so to read books, see visuals, and experience the cards is a great way to learn. To listen to you is amazing. I read your book Holistic Tarot, which I just got and I hear the way you talk as I read. So helpful. Thank you so much for these videos. I am doing as your book says and reading other authors. Love Rachel Pollack 78 Degrees, she is so good, love the depth she goes, which is what I want. No divination and future telling for this girl. I’m in for the learn of a life time. Please keep these videos and the format. It doesn’t seem so daunting done this way. I will watch each video twice. One the write and one to hear more of what is said. Thank you so much

Before coming to your channel, I think I was a little disturbed by the persona surrounding Crowley, but reading up a little I can see where maybe some of his problems came from!^^ The Thoth deck is one stylistically, I would not have considered before, but the more I learn about the types of decks, the more I am intrigued, especially by the symbolism and the art style. I've got a book arriving today, an encyclopedia of symbols, to help me understand the subject on a stand alone basis and in conjunction with your book, Holistic Tarot. Really appreciate the wealth of information and analysis you share, thank you! 🙏💛 P.S. I'm planning on purchasing the Spirit Keeper's Tarot deck and hope to save up in time for it's next run! I think, it will be an important addition to have in my small collection, for contemporary/future historical purposes, the modern interpretations, as well as the phenomenal artwork!

My heart pointed me in this direction especially about actually taking action and achieving a great magnitude of freedoms. My grandmother with Alzheimers said to me a few hours before watching this she turned and said u better get em its 111 left then mysteriously I get a deck of cards in the mail from a Marlboro company with a compass on the top of the case with my name and birthday so that lead me here and I definitely need one of your card decks. How do I get one?
