What Are Tarot Cards?
A tarot deck contains 78 cards used for centuries as a tool for reflection, intuition, and self-understanding. Each card carries a layered set of meanings — symbols, archetypes, and emotional weather — that shift depending on the question asked, the cards around it, and the moment you draw it. The Rider-Waite-Smith deck shown above is the most widely-referenced tarot system in the English-speaking world, and the meanings on this site all follow that tradition.
The Structure of the Tarot Deck
The 78 cards split into two halves. The Major Arcana — 22 cards numbered from The Fool (0) to The World (XXI) — trace the archetypal stages of human experience and carry the most weight in a reading. The Minor Arcana is 56 cards in four suits, each tied to an element and a domain of life: Wands (fire, passion and will), Cups (water, emotion and love), Swords (air, thought and conflict), and Pentacles (earth, work and material stability). Each suit runs Ace through Ten plus four court cards — Page, Knight, Queen, and King — representing different ages or expressions of the suit's energy.
How to Read a Tarot Card
