What is Tarot

Tarot is a centuries-old system of divination that combines symbolism and intuition to offer insights into the past, present, and future. Tarot readings are done through a 78-card deck and are usually performed by a skilled practitioner (although one doesn’t have to be a professional to give a tarot reading!). Tarot readers draw and then interpret cards in response to a seeker's questions or concerns.

Each card in the deck carries its own unique symbolism and meaning; for example, The Fool can mean innocence and new beginnings while The Magician can represent desire. While some view tarot as a mystical or supernatural tool, others see it as a reflection of the reader’s subconscious and the seeker's own thoughts and emotions.
