US*Tarot Deck Swap

To all who were interested in @bella80 s International Tarot Deck Swap, but were deterred due to the extensive costs of sending overseas, I've decided it would be great to create a US only version! A huge thank you to @bella80 for allowing me to do so ^_^ I have just copied her original swap work up, and included it below, so the guidelines and requirements are the same.

"The art of Tarot reading is interesting in a few ways. Supposedly, the deck that you use will not work unless it is given to you in the spirit of benevolence. Because of this you are not supposed to purchase a tarot deck for yourself. The magical element of these cards comes from the willingness to give it.

In addition there are thousands of different types of decks out there, the most common of which is the Rider Wait Tarot deck. Different countries and different traditions have different types of decks.

So for this swap you will send a deck of tarot cards (anything but Rider Wait, as most people have access to this style of deck). The deck will need to be in good / new condition. You will send a deck of cards and some kind of case, A decorative box, a hand made bag, a deck velvet wrap.

If you are creative / artistically inclined, you may also make the deck of cards yourself - but it must be the full deck of cards, and it needs to be of a high quality.

You can do some research as well for this, for example most people keep their decks in natural fibers because they believe this keeps the deck closer to it's natural roots. The goal of this swap is to make this box or carrying case send this deck in the spirit of giving so the recipient can use this deck.

Please note that this is the US ONLY version of this swap!

No one with a score below 4.5 can participate. I reserve the right to remove you from this swap if once I review your profile I find that you have excessive flaking or non-sent items. Please remember your swap partner is just as eager to receive a package as you are!"

I am unable to angel this swap, so, Just as with every swap! Please do not sign up unless you intend to send and do so on time! As mentioned above, I will be checking profiles prior to partner assignment. Thank you all and have fun!
