78 Cards | 22 Major Arcana | 56 Minor Arcana
A European card tradition with over 500 years of history, later used for divination and self-reflection through symbols and imagery.
Tarot is a deck of 78 cards used for divination, self-reflection, and seeking understanding of life. Each card carries deep symbolism connected to the human subconscious.
Tarot is not a tool for fixed future prediction, but rather a mirror that helps us see new perspectives, understand current situations, and consider available options.
Today, Tarot is popular worldwide both as a spiritual tool and a self-improvement tool that helps stimulate intuition and creativity.
Tarot originated in Europe during the 15th century (1400s), beginning in Italy as "Tarocchi" - initially used as a card game for the nobility.
In the 18th century, Tarot began to be used for divination by French occultists, and its symbolic meanings have been continuously developed since.
The Rider-Waite-Smith deck (1909), designed by Arthur Edward Waite and illustrated by Pamela Colman Smith, became the most popular deck and serves as the template for many modern Tarot decks.
