Tarot cards are a deck of 78 cards used for divination, self-reflection, and insight into life situations. The deck is divided into two main sections: the Major Arcana, which contains 22 cards representing significant life events and spiritual lessons, and the Minor Arcana, which includes 56 cards divided into four suits (typically Wands, Cups, Swords, and Pentacles) that deal with everyday situations and experiences.
Each card has its own imagery, symbolism, and meaning, which can change based on its position in a spread and whether it’s upright or reversed. Tarot readings can be conducted in various layouts, or spreads, that allow the reader to interpret the cards’ meanings in relation to each other and the question at hand. While often associated with fortune-telling, many people use tarot as a tool for personal growth and introspection
