I hadn't got around to posting this for a couple of months. I gave myrialux the Sherlock Holmes Tarot for his birthday as he loves Sherlock Holmes, and I thought the idea of a Holmes Tarot hilarious. (As Toby puts it: Holmes may not like it, but Doyle would!)

Here's the getting-to-know-you reading, this time with my actual interpretation of the cards instead of just writing down what's in the book!





Image sort of small because that's how it ended up being texted over from myrialux's phone.

That's a lovely reading. I *like* this deck.

I don't feel I get the most out of it since I don't know the Sherlock Holmes canon well enough, but it's a great deck.

myrialux knows the Holmes canon primarily from various movie and TV adaptations, since he's more of a viewer than a reader, but between us we get the gist. :)

I have very little Holmes knowledge but this looks very cool!
