How many tarot cards are there? What's the point?

The word "Tarot" is taken from Egyptian characters tar (Tao) and ro (King), meaning "King". So "Tarot" itself refers to his correct determination as a king, which is also the origin of this divination method.

Tarot cards are composed of 22 picture cards (Grand Akana) and 56 digital cards (Little Akana), with a total of 78 cards. Each beautiful card has its own unique pattern and meaning. The method of divination is to arrange the cards in a certain form (we call it "unfolding" here), and then judge by the position of the cards. We can carry out divination according to different needs such as love, health, wealth and marriage. Whatever it is, we can know it through tarot cards, especially when we don't know what to do. This is a very good indicator. In addition, only you can find the information conveyed by the card face and uncover the mystery of the ancient tarot card.

Overview of tarot cards

The so-called tarot cards are a set of 78 cards with patterns, which are usually used to predict the future, or in layman's terms, fortune telling.

The origin of tarot cards is still unclear. Crusaders or Gypsies may have been introduced to Europe from Egypt or China. It is confirmed that Tarot cards appeared in Italy in the early14th century.

The 78 cards are divided into small Akana (***56 cards) and big Akana (also known as the trump card, with various characters painted on it, ***22 cards). The Little Akana card is very similar to the current playing cards, and it is also divided into four colors, namely the scepter (plum blossom), the Holy Grail (red heart), the sword (spades) and the five-pointed star (square). * * * each suit 14 cards, including 10 sub-cards (1 to 10) and four flower cards (namely king, queen, knight and guard). The pattern on the Grand Akanaka represents a very complicated symbol. Earlier, the Grand Akanaka was not numbered, and later it was numbered 1-2 1, leaving a "fool" without a number or 0.

The earliest tarot cards were made by hand, and some were designed by famous painters.

In the application of tarot cards, you can use one-time payment or only use the big Akana card. The cards drawn each time are very important, and the relative position between cards is also very important. There are different rules to interpret tarot cards, such as the simple method of using only three cards, the traditional Celtic cross method, the English method and the astrology method.
