Just go to the Ctrl-D screen  (De)activate cards.

Then pick a subset of your total tags you want to study with the checkboxes.

Then click "Save this set for later use", and name it.  (You can use a
name you've already used if you like.)

You can do this as many times as you like, and doing so will mark JUST
those cards as "active".  I have a few different sets for various
reasons.  Some overlap, some don't.  But that's totally up to you.
