What is the Tarot?
The Tarot is a series of cards, similar to playing cards, that is best known for it's use in divination. Tarot cards reveal mystical and philosophical truths through their pictures. Simply put, Tarot cards are a means of predicting events or receiving guidance in both our inner (spiritual) or outer (manifest) world. Every Tarot deck consists of seventy-eight cards, each deck has two main sections: the Major Arcana and the Minor Arcana (or pips), the Minor Arcana is further divided into numbered cards and what is commonly referred as the Court Cards.
No one is exactly sure how Tarot cards originated, but it's widely believed that the ancient Egyptian Masons developed them as a means of charting their important metaphysical and transformational discoveries.
