ok, now this is the discussion that's worthwhile. What word would you say the Rider-Waite deck represents? I feel that since it's the one that Aleister Crowley is involved with, it feels like the point of reference for using the tarot deck for the occult instead of historical game playing reasons, which many sources use as a point of inspiration and reference?

What word would you use for Marseilles tarot and the Rider-Waite in these contexts?
