Question 1

How many tarot cards are there?

Accepted Answer

A classical tarot deck has 78 cards — 22 Major Arcana cards that describe the big themes of a life, and 56 Minor Arcana cards across four suits (wands, cups, swords, pentacles) for everyday experience.

Question 2

What is the difference between the Major and Minor Arcana?

Accepted Answer

The Major Arcana is the 22 picture cards from The Fool to The World — they represent overarching life phases and archetypes. The Minor Arcana looks like a regular playing-card deck with four suits and 14 cards each; it shows concrete situations, feelings and everyday actions.

Question 3

What do reversed tarot cards mean?

Accepted Answer

When a tarot card lands reversed, it points to a blocked, internal or not-yet-conscious version of the same energy. A reversed card isn't "bad" — it shows that the same meaning is currently turned inward or hasn't fully expressed itself yet.

Question 4

Can you learn tarot on your own?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Most tarot readers start by learning the cards themselves, in small daily steps — one card a day, with notes and a tie to their own life. Our 30-day tarot guide is built exactly for that: 5 minutes a day, one card after another.
