Tarot Card Reading is all about Intuition, Patience and Faith

What exactly is Tarot?

The word ‘Tarot’ brings in quite a few perceptions and misconceptions about it. For an instance, when we talk about a Tarot Card Reading or Tarot reader, the first thing that comes to mind is; a lady with the flair of curls wearing jazzy ornaments and a sinuous robe with a crystal ball in front of her. This is because cinema and novels have described us in that way. However, in reality, it’s a different picture altogether.

Many times I have come across questions like; why is there no magical crystal ball? Why there aren’t any glittery curtains, witchy stuff, and dim lights? Well, folks, we aren’t shooting for a movie.

All about the cards

Moreover, the most common question every Tarot practitioner comes across is, “How does this thing work?” Well, here’s how:

Tarot is lots more than what we generally assume. For all those who don’t know, it is a set of colourful cards with meaningful pictures and every picture depicts something. However, all the colours on the cards, pictorial descriptions and numbers convey a message. It is a deck of seventy-eight cards in total. The Major Arcana and The Minor Arcana are the two sets of Tarot. The Major Arcana consists of 22 cards and the Minor Arcana has 56 cards. Hence, the cards of the Major Arcana weave the basic life of a person.
