I reckon some of you will know me from the old purple pages.
It's taken quite a while, but here I am.
I'm kinda busy these days so don't yet know how active I'll be, but I do look forward to sharing with you and learning from you.
This forum is officially closed. It will however remain online and active in a limited form for the time being.
Hello, it's me Major Tom
Re: Hello, it's me Major Tom
Oh my ears and whiskers !!! Major Tom is here. The designer of the world renowned Major Tom's Tarot of Marseilles !!! Maybe we could revive it on these boards. It's a great deck. Didn't receive the attention it deserved I think. http://www.aeclectic.net/tarot/cards/ma ... arseilles/
It's really good to see you again. As for me, I may look like a Marigold, sound like a Marigold and act like a Marigold, but underneath is the real me : Diana. (I'm even a card in your Marseilles deck so I will live on forever in the TdM. It's a lovely idea!!!). I have a feeling you will not have forgotten me considering all those interactions we used to have on the purple place.
Am still as passionate as always about the TdM. I took a long break (more than ten years I think) from the Tarot but returned recently and all the old passion returned. I have mellowed a little though, I probably won't anymore speak of throwing pearls to swine which was the last straw that got me banned from the purple place.
This forum is the best. I'm so glad you joined. And I hope you'll be hugely active !!!!

oh how good to see you! Euripides here. It took me a long time, too.
This is just my opinion. Your mileage may vary. My statement of my belief is not a criticism of your belief.

Hello Tom,
The title was very eye catching for this David Bowie fan.
I followed the link of Marigold.
Wow Wow Wow! You really have created a beautifull set. II love the colours.
The set is on my wish list.

Re: Hello, it's me Major Tom
I need to correct an error I made in my welcome post. I said I was a card in the Marseilles deck. But I think not. That's not possible. Was there not another deck you designed based on the Waite ? My memory is serving me badly here. I remember a photo with me holding up some sort of globe or something, and Solandia on her card was facing with her back to us - maybe the two of Wands ?

Re: Hello, it's me Major Tom
Unfortunately, I never finished that deck. I do still have the images somewhere... I'll nose around and try to find it.
Thanks for the welcome archimedes and Lucifall.
