What Are The Different Tarot Card Decks?

Tarot Cards originated in late 14th century France where artists created playing cards for wealthy families to use in their parlour games. It was in the late 16th century that Tarot Cards were starting to be seen as tools of divination. By the 18th century, people began to assign a universal meaning behind the symbolism and the patterns on the Tarot Cards. A French occultist by the name of Jean-Baptiste Alliette was the first to release a Tarot Card Deck in 1791 for the sole purpose of divination.

Tarot Card Reading is one of the most popular psychic divination practices done all over the world. There are many types of Tarot Card Decks, but all have 78 cards used as tools for spiritual divination. Each deck has 22 Major Arcana cards and 56 Minor Arcana cards that represent different characteristics.

Though there are different Tarot Card Decks designed by different artists and with varying images, the underlying symbolism these Tarot Cards remain the same. The pictures on the cards are rich in meaning and the pattern they form in a reading can help the reader to gain insight into someone’s life.

The variety of the Tarot Card Decks were designed not only to be beautiful but also to be inspirational and help the readers connect with their intuitive abilities as well as their Spirit Guides. Whether it’s a message from the Angels or otherworldly beings, the Tarot Cards serve as tools for divination and require great practice and deep understanding.

 

Here are some of the favourite Tarot Card Decks practised by readers all over the world…

At Psychic Truth, we have highly intuitive psychics with a deep understanding of the Tarot Cards and Angel Cards, and rich in experience. Our psychics have their own preferences and they use what best speaks to them depending on their current circumstance. Quite often, as with crystals, it’s the tarot deck that choses the psychic, not the psychic who choses the tarot.

Together with their other natural psychic abilities, our psychic readers draw on the Tarot Cards and Angel Cards to present the picture, the journey ahead, with sign posts along the way.
