THE REALM OF TAROT

There are 78 cards in a Tarot deck. The deck is divided into two groups, the Minor Arcana and the Major Arcana. The Minor Arcana is simalar to traditional playing cards. It consists of 56 cards, 14 cards of each of the 4 suits. The Major Arcana is 22 individually named cards, each with a different meaning and symbolism such as ... the The Lovers, The Star, and The Fool.

Tarot is one of the more accessible oracles. It is a helpful tool for self-understanding, personal growth and problem solving. On my link page there is Tarot Info. link I found this to be a very easy to follow guide for those of you who have not yet learned to use tarot as a divination tool.(ps don't forget to look on my "When to do magic"and "meaning of color" pages to help you with your spells)
