I just bought my first Tarot Card Deck now need to figure out how to bless it

I bought the Mystic Dreamer Tarot Card Deck names of it Heidi Dorros and Borboro Moore text. I went with this deck because when I was at the Renaissance Fair it seemed to spoke to me. There is a really good Book store at the Texas Renaissance fair they have all kinds of tarot cards. I purposely went around their shop knowing what I wanted, but felt out all of the cards till I felt a connection. I brought my Crystals with me to help see if I could get a vibe off of everything.

If you are able to go to the Renaissance Fair be sure to check their book store out I forget what it is called, but it is the only one there on the subject. I believe the people running it are real Wiccans were pleasant and had been the same ones there before. I got a children fairy book from them last year for a friend of mine kid.

Edit forgot the part on asking how to bless a deck after you Buy it. I'm going to try to talk to my aunt she has a Tarot Card deck. Money is still tight and I know it was a lot, but it felt worth it for some reason.

for a while before they use them. I don't remember how long, but I believe the number of nights had some numerological significance.

I'm still new to the Tarot cards. My Aunt had some. I think I'll have to get a bag. Money's been tight here I just had to have them though. I bought a talisman last year when I went. It was about dreams and the moon. I keep it with my Crystals I want to do a Native American thing and make a dream Catcher with it in the middle. I saw a cool idea there last year that someone had a bottle in the middle of the dream catcher with a plant in it. That is what made me think of it as a cool idea.

These cards were about Dreaming and the Moon which I really found speaking to me. I almost missed them it took looking through the store over and over again, but I knew something was there it was a odd feeling like I had to keep looking I didn't know if it was a book or what then I saw the Cards on the top shelf and had to have someone help get it for me.

When I blessed the deck, I invoked a circle, calling on the four directions; consecrating the cards with the four elements in the presence of the Goddess. I keep this deck on my alter.

I'm just now expanding my belief system, but my aunt had one for a long time.
