HELLO KITTY!!!
She's turning 35 this year, you know. It's a big deal. There actually was a TV show, there are entire stores dedicated to her and her cohorts, and even MAC cosmetics put out a special Hello Kitty line earlier this year (I'm the proud owner of a swarovski-encrusted compact and lipgloss-- bubblegum pink and sparkly, of course.) *sigh* You know it's bad when I bring my little Japanese mug with embossed pink cats into a project advancement meeting and the President of the company asks me how I'm enjoying my tea in the hello kitty mug...
On a thread related note, I have three tarot decks of my own--
1. My main deck: Legend (all of the images are based on Arthurian legends. Lovely and very easy for me to read
2. My anime deck-- adorable! Too cute and happy for any negative readings
3. A circle deck that I just don't feel any urge to read. So I don't.
I started reading after having my tarot read in college. The woman who did read gave me the best advice in the world-- she pulled the World card for me-- i'm not quite certain what position in the layout since at the time I didn't know how to read, then said: "I don't see anything about love, but I do see something very important-- you currently hold the world in your hands-- a scholarship--and it's so important. It's so easy to drop this. Don't." At the time, I was on full scholarship that was dependent on a high GPA... and I was slipping. Whether or not she actually knew something or was just shooting in the dark, her advice was golden. I try to always keep that first reading in mind when I read for others.

I collect tarot decks for their beauty. But I also read for myself and family and my reading deck is the Robin Wood! 
I don't read for anyone except family and close friends. Picked up tarot reading from some of my fellow Wiccans. I was even thinking of designing a tarot deck with my granddaughter - for boaters. I have not come across a boater's deck yet when I looked on Aeclectic tarot site: http://www.aeclectic.net/tarot/. Anyone else use this site? Also, anyone have any of the Ciro Marchetti decks? They are works of art. I don't have one of his decks yet, but it is on my wish list!
Seen this one?:
