The Fyodor Pavlov Tarot, though, I've definitely had my eyes on! *_* I love his art style a lot.

Yes, it's lovely! I'm glad there's a mass market version because it would've been inaccessible to me otherwise.

I haven't worked with Lenormand either. I have a deck and a book. And I keep meaning to learn... I'll get to it someday xD

The symbology of tarot is so exciting, too. Like, the visual metaphors are dramatic in a way Lenormand isn't.

I like oracle decks better for daily draws instead of drawing for a question. They work well for loose journalling inspiration. Or as clarifiers! Some of them combine well with tarot to elucidate meanings.

That's exactly it! And the intended structure of Lenormand readings is so different, since I get the impression that the usual reading style is almost as a literal sentence, whereas tarot is a lot more free-flowing even if you're following the guidebook religiously. Some of my oracle decks lean more Lenormand in simplicity, and some are more like tarot.
