What is tarot?
Tarot cards are pictorial representations of events and energies that we
are likely to encounter in life, such as determination, patience, new
beginnings, leaving things behind, joy, togetherness, heartache, reflection and
decision-making.
Tarot decks normally contain 78 cards, 22 of which are referred to as the Major
Arcana and depict the major changes on our path through life. The remaining 56
cards, known as the Minor Arcana, expand on these themes. Like a pack of playing
cards, the Minor Arcana are made up of four suits - wands, representing the
spirit/fire, cups the emotions/water, swords the mind/air and pentacles the
physical world/earth - numbered 1 to 10, Page, Knight, Queen, King. Some decks
use different names for these suits, and others substitute Prince and Princess
for Page and Knight, but most of the qualities represented by the cards are
similar.
The tarot can be used as a divining tool by reading cards that are selected
unseen from a deck, and interpreting the interaction of the cards and their
positions in a spread (specific layout), with reference to issues of importance
in your life.
A brief history of tarot
The exact origins of the tarot are unknown. Playing cards were in use in
China in the eleventh century, and there is also evidence to link its origins to
India and to Buddhism, although one of the most likely theories is that it
originated in Egypt, where it is thought the priesthood used the cards. From
these uncertain origins, the tarot survived (at times hidden, ironically, within
church walls and at other times being used merely as a gaming tool) relatively
unchanged until the 19th century, when several new decks were produced. Because
of the small scale of production, these were probably limited in their
circulation to those with an active interest in the occult.
The first commercial deck - the Rider Waite deck - on which many modern decks
are based, was produced in 1910 by A. E. Waite. The tarot has continued to grow
in popularity, and modern printing methods ensure that it is becoming available
to anyone who wishes to explore its uses. This is not to say that everyone
understands the tarot - only study and personal growth can help to reveal its
many mysteries.
In recent history tarot cards have been used for divination, however this is not
known to have been their original use. The earliest uses of tarot cards are for
trick taking card games which are still enjoyed today in Europe.
