Thank you Joe! This video is articulate and informative. I’ve mostly been using the Aquarian and RWS decks since 1996. Now I am curious and excited to revisit Crowley’s Thoth, Kabbalah and alchemy. The rabbit hole never ends!

me, an absolute beginner who bought this deck: 👁👄👁

It's so refreshing to watch someone talk about magic that's not pretentious and doesn't fear monger. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Haven’t been using my Thoth much these days, but it is my forever soul deck. When I started learning tarot, I had a dream with Thoth (the deity), he was showing me the cards and telling me how “colorful” the images were. Of course, I ran off and bought the deck that same week and went right into the rabbit hole lol.

I really appreciate your thoughts. i just picked up this deck and am definitely intimidated, but look forward to the journey.

Joe, that was brilliant. I use the Thoth tarot. I love it. I'm a classical musician and artist. The cards speak to me for all the reasons you listed. Thanks for the information in your video. I'm going to watch it again and take some notes and purchase a book or two!! Blessed be! 🌞❤️🙏

You are absolutely correct with respect to it being a lifelong study, Joe! I have been working with the Thoth deck for years and it continues to provide guidance & assistance for inner awakening and ongoing spiritual practice. Perhaps this is why it’s not everyone’s cup of tea!

i found this incredibly useful. your style of communication answers questions i didnt know how to ask and your tone is inclusive. loved the phrase philosophicial paradigm masochist

Love your video!!! I had a lot of experiences with this deck that came naturally through using it my first week. No deck has ever came that naturally to me. Was a very great experience. I’ve been studying a lot about Crowley due to the fact he knew every aspect of the occult. His fiction is very interesting as well through my studies. ^^ I think it’s important to study all aspects of the world and he brings a lot of light into that.

This is such a helpful video. And thank you for making me laugh in the process!

Just bought this deck. I'm so excited to begin learning about it, thank you for this video

Thank you so much for this! Been learning a lot about Crowley and was feeling a bit apprehensive, even though I feel so drawn to this deck. This was really helpful and inspiring. Can’t wait to get my Thoth deck

I’m excited! I ordered some old ass Thoth deck! It looks like super used & it makes me even more excited to learn! I have waited to watch this video for almost a year! I’ve enjoyed your shorts & watch them multiple times sometimes…I can learn from you & my ADHD agrees! I’m so ready

you're amazing ahhhh!!!!!!!!!!! you make my heart light up !!!! thank you for this intro

I got this deck last year and decided to learn more about it now that I have the courage and time. Not going to lie, this deck was really intimidating at first until I started to learn about the history behind the cards. I’m surprised at how much astrology and numerology is used (and I’m pretty knowledgeable in both) so it makes learning this deck much easier. I didn’t know about Kabbalah until I started with this deck and it’s pretty eye opening. I’m glad this deck chose me because I love to study and learn outside of the box.

Just started my journey with this Deck,very excited to learn

I've been studying the thoth deck for a year. I am addicted. In the best way possible. Deep reverence for Aleister... Love this video too btw!

Thank you! I love your clarity, being fun and to the point. Much appreciated!

I like your introduction of the Thoth Tarot. I hope that you will start a Thoth course on KZfaq. Including Kabbalah and Astrology.

you speak with such eloquence, love this video ♥️

Thank you for portraying this in an informative and fun way. All the best!

Thank you so much! Just started studying Thoth, your video is very helpful 💫

You're 100% right about this card and it's tendency to 'accelerate' karma. I guess it's kinda because once you're able to observe things at a causal level you actively input stimuli that either changes or accelerates karma.

It almost sounded like you were describing my obsessions / observations of the Marseilles deck. I've got a copy on order and now I cant wait to get into it !

Hiiii! I’m just starting my tarot journey 2.0. with the hermetic tarot deck and found your video. Lovely channel! Really grateful for what your doing. I agree with a lot of the comments here about how accesible you’re making this -and the humor just makes it better-. Is a big difficulty one finds when starting, the lack of accessibility and openness to many key concepts, so thanks! I’ll be checking your videos now ✨

Very pleased with your explanation. You have encouraged me to go bach to my Thoth Deck and book and delve deeper at every opportunity. Thank you.

I used the quarantine to finally learn Thoth. I'm now a little obsessed with it!!! Think about it all day long!!!!

Its so refreshing to see such appreciation for power. My thoth deck found me... changed my life. And I didn't know anything about tarot, but I learned real fast

What a great video i appreciate it so much. Just got my first tarot deck, the Thoth, and landed on your video as the first intro tutorial I watched. I'm an instant fan... #peace

I absolutely loved this video! Thanks! I'm thinking about getting a Thoth deck and this just helped me decide! It's a big YES hahaahaha I adore the art and I could relate to pretty much everything you said.

Thorough and clear presentation of the Thoth deck. Thank you!

You certainly have me intrigued 🕵️‍♀️

Awesome video! Thanks! I’m getting the deck! 😆

Thank you for this!!!!!!! Acquired my first Thoth deck a week ago and I'm down the rabbit hole. But what a fascinating place to be!

I didn't know what brought my lovefriend to give this Thoth Tarot deck for my birthday gift. The first time I held them, I was drawn to the complexities, and I knew I just jumped into lifelong study that actually still scares me till this second but it's also exciting. Thank you for this video! And I'm interested to watch more of your videos! x

Excellent presentation. I wholeheartedly agree. I use the Hermetic Tarot, but used the Book of Thoth for knowledge. You are very accurate and articulate well. Success to you on your path and along your journey.

I'm so happy I came across your channel. You are simply a beautiful soul and I love how you described Crowley. He has been described as the most evil man in the world. Depending on your definition of evil and how much you believe about the things said about him but to deny his brilliance is sheer ignorance. Love him or hate him, the man had a huge impact on occultism, witchcraft practices in general and he traveled in very interesting circles. I currently work with Tarot of the Holy Light but have read Crowley for years and wanted to explore this deck. I picked it up and am doing that now. Apparently, I was meant to find your channel. Wonderful video. I am also studying sacred geometry so this deck will assist me in delving deeper into that as well. Very excited to dive in!

philosophical paradigm masochist.... you got me there 😂

I’m just about finished watching my third video by you and wanted to pause for a moment to say how grateful and inspired I feel by you. I love your teaching style. Thank you for taking this work seriously and being so generous to share this knowledge for free. May divine forces bless you in infinite and mysterious ways. You are a good example of what it means to be a someone on this journey. Thanks again, from Australia.

Been working with this deck for nearly 2 years, but watching this because I love to learn more and more. You are so correct about everything and this is highly informative! Thank you so much :)

“The will of the heart” 🤯. I’m sold on this deck

Loved loved all your explanations of the thoth. I a fan of thoth

Really good video for me, I'm a beginner right now, and my mom owned a Thoth and I've always been fascinated with the images, without knowing what they meant at all (as a kid!). This gives a completely new perspective on this fascinating deck to me

Sick intro yaaaaaassss how the tunnel turned into the shuffling of the deck was dope!!!

this is my favourite deck, I connect so beautifully with it.

I bought this deck a while a go as my first deck knowing not so much about tarot and this one just really spoke to me. I started using it without much knowledge and always felt so known but also a bit of a dark vibe in a positive way kind of like shadow work! Thank you for your information ☺️

Thank you so much. These are the kind of details the we (learners) want to know about the cards. I bought the toth taro years ago, until now I'm really interested in reading it and I just got recently the book of Lon Milo. Glad to have made a good choice.

You really ended this lesson with a beautiful explanation of the intention of Crowley, Thelema, and how that is transmitted through the cards. I am going to buy these cards, and recommended books, as well as follow along with your vids. 🙏🌸💚

Thank you for the amazing video Joe, I love the way you explain things and the open-minded perspective you share! I'm just now getting into Tarot, astrology, philosophy and the like as a newbie, and was feeling a bit anxious about having a Thoth deck as my first one. I picked it after being drawn by the art & knowing nothing about Aleister Crowley, then after some research was thinking I got in too deep and should just return it and get a standard Rider Waite deck. But after your video and doing a bit of other reading, I think the Thoth deck has a lot of great potential and I'm actually really excited to dive into it more! You may have just helped kick off my witching journey haha, keep up the great content:)

Great job at explaining!

I love Benebell Wen! I'm glad you mentioned her, she's so instrumental in the spiritual community

To show someone the actual paths is amazingly humble. True teacher can i say thank you enough!! Happy!

Absolutely a great video. Thank you!

Excellent lecture Joe: I'm a metaphysician that have taught Thoth Tarot and psychic development for over 30 years.

I’m sad I didn’t find your channel sooner. But I am hooked. I love the point you made about the deck and Crowley. I learned to read tarot on this deck, and everything you said is so spot on, you now have a plan for life in me.

Thank you such an amazing vid !

Thank you, I learned more in this video than in the past 2 days looking for guidance in Thoth interpretation.

Love this video! Thank you so muchhhh

Thank you for this video, i recently bought a Thoth tarot deck and im very excited to study it!

you definitely got me excited about this deck, especially with the karma and showing the underlying energies. thank you!

I’m a nurse and range of psychic motion makes soooo much sense to me in this context!

Well damn, I didn’t expect to have my entire perspective changed in less than 3 minutes 🤣❤️ fabulous video, thank you

My g thank you. I lost my first thoth deck but after a lot of awakening and weird dreams to say the least I needed this bit of power to help thank you

Excellent overview. I've only used oracle cards and other divination, but I've had a growing interest in Aleister Crowley and I feel his teachings of Themela resonate with me a lot. I live in Boston and I felt inspired to take a trip to Salem today. I stumbled upon this deck and immediately felt drawn to it, though I had no intention of buying a tarot deck. I love the esoteric sophistication in the deck. What's interesting is that I did my first reading and I swear I felt a powerful energy using the cards. It also turned up a reading of cards that seemed quite accurate to my present state. I'm glad you mentioned accelerated karma...I'm not sure still how that works but it's good to know.

Loved this one. Thank You.✨🌠💫

Amazing video and you described the Thoth deck in a way which I haven't seen in other videos, alot of clarity and understanding. I'm studying Thelema and I'm gonna get my first tarot deck very soon and I've been torn between the Thoth deck and the Hermetic tarot deck, yes I know my first deck and I'm choosing between two of the most difficult haha.

Fantastic. Perfect explanation. Thank you

Wow. I can't wait to try this deck now! My main style of reading is to connect with Higher Self energy so this seems like the perfect deck for me to deepen my practice. Thanks for your insight!

Such a good video, thank you ✨

This was such a lovely video, thank you! This comment is going to be a bit long, but I have to get this out since I loved your video so much. The thoth tarot had been on my wishlist for ages and it was only today that I was drawn to check its price again (I'm a recent graduate and the price constantly fluctuates so I wanted to buy it when I could afford it best). For the first time in months, the price was low enough for me to make the jump. Your point about how the deck allows you to connect with your higher self made me cry immediately and it was then that I remembered the vision that came to me during my meditation on the akashic records. I met my higher self in my vision and they looked as if they were born out of the imagery of the Thoth deck. I didn't recognise them at first but as they came closer I could hear their energy telling me that them and I were one. I feel like that's a huge sign that I'm ready to bring this deck into my life. Thank you, again, for your video and the confirmation with it.

Epic! Signed up for the newsletter - thanks for the excellent content

Your on another Level Joe!

Great video! Well explained

Absolutely brilliant. Many thanks.

Great video! First watch and i already subscribed!

about time !! feel ready to dive deep into Thot ancient knowledge and symbolism. door wide open. thanks beautiful soul !!

Range of motion makes sense.. i like that. FUNCTIONAL MOVEMENTS 🤘

You're such a good teacher! Thanks :)

Just got my Thoth deck and after watching this video I am SO excited to jump in and research. Bout to pull apart my paradigm lol.

GREAT VIDEO thank u!! just picked up a thoth deck in new orleans ❤️

Amazing video, very helpful, just got the big Thoth deck, but the small one also looks very nice. My first and most recent reading done for me was with the Thoth deck. Btw you remind me greatly of my late boyfriend Noah who passed away 2 years ago. He would have loved to have a channel like yours! I am studying his copy of The Book of Thoth. I look forward to looking at all of your educational content!

Perfect timing 🔥❤️🔥

i was gifted this deck for christmas and i havenʻt used tarot cards before! thanks for the info :)

This video is golden!! This deck has been quicking my butt in the last few days. Totally activates karma and shadow work.

Great Video I read the Lon Milo DuQuette book this week and will read the Book of Thoth when my Brain recovers.

That was incredibly informative on this specific deck that I have been lead to. I’ve had a shift in consciousness towards the perception of the Tarot, thinking it was a crutch or simply a tool of divination which I felt I could do it myself without tools. However I now see it as an extension of the self, seeing the framework underlying the facade, way to know the self better, to help others, and to be truly self empowered because when we are aware of what needs to be done in our lives we can take the right action to do. Thank you for explaining the difference of this deck and subsequent accuracy and complexities involved, I am a beginner but have a newfound interest and I look forward to studying thank you for the book recommendations. You rock! Well done good sir 👏🏼

Great video. Some friends have been telling me to get into the Thoth deck. I'm a traditional taro kinda guy rn... however after getting a primer into Magick from the GD tradition, but have just popped my Crowley cherry lmfao! Already see how fascinating a Magician he was. Love it so far. Started Resh a week ago and been playing with the Star Ruby. Great shit. Glad I ran across your video my friend. Thanks for the understanding. Good to see a KZfaq channel with heart. Love is the Law. Respect and love to yall.

Love your energy! So glad I found you in our FB Tarot Group. I'm a new subscriber! ❤

Beautiful energy 🎉🌟💖💖💖

So amazing. Thank you 😊.

Thank you for this video. Great overview, very helpful. I bought a 1971 version of this deck on EBay over a decade ago because it simply called to me. Recently I purchased the DuQuette book you suggested and I just finished it today. I plan to dive into Crowley's Book of Thoth next. I'm excited to see your instructional video on using this deck! It's my first deck, though I'm already somewhat versed in its occult concepts. I'm very interested in learning more Qabalah after DuQuette's book. And, I'm finally ready to dive in and accelerate my karma after so many years owning this deck. It's called to me again, now to dive deeper after so many years just admiring its artwork. I'm glad to have you here as a guide. 💙

Fantastic video. Thank you for sharing in the group. I have been considering Thoth but have yet to purchase a deck and book. However I have read a bit of Crowleys biography enough to understand that yes he is controversial but also that this a someone who has been very much misunderstood. This video confirms my initial thoughts on Thoth. I will be moving forward with my studies of Thoth.

thank you for this video. i started my toth study a month ago . with books, but having a human in front of you really helps! your ppainting in the background reminds me of the röhrig tarot- pretty cool!

💙 Crowley 💙 the book of Thoth as a second read: hear hear. This deck is one of my favorite and highly inspirational 💙

Look how flippin' adorable you are with that cute smile while you explain tarot! I can tell you have a passion for it. It's catchy! Keep up the good work! (I've been a tarot "student" for over 20 years.)

The only deck I use, just because Im so use to the art . And seems to be more truthful and powerful. And ive been using them for 40 something yrs. And when i was young , it was Very had to find anything on these cards. Thats whats so great about this time in our lives right now with this great free knowledge of internet more books ect.

thank youu this is soo helpful:(( i just got myself this deck and feel ready to submerge into crowley's way of thinking..

I'm a baby witch, I started with the Osho Zen deck because I'm very well acquainted with all the imagery, and the philosophy. I picked up the thoth tarot deck because it called to me, and it's been a wild journey learning its ins and outs.

Wooooww, I love Thoth's tarot and your energy

I'm a newbie but I kept thinking that a deity connection would be female (I do like my Brigid!) but Thoth is showing up now and I love the music/frequencies of Thoth. Thank you for this video. You're just real and sincere.
