Introduction - Tarot is a popular form of divination throughout the world. It enjoys it's popularity for many reasons such as the artistry and design, but perhaps the best reason is because the cards 'speak' to most users and provide remarkably clear readings when consulted. Tarot Packs, with few exceptions, contain 78 cards. There are 22 cards known as the Major Arcana (unique to Tarot Packs) and 56 cards known as the Minor Arcana. 'The Fool' is the only card of the Major Arcana that has appeared in the modern set of playing cards as 'The Joker'. The Minor Arcana is often considered to be the ancestor of the ordinary pack of playing cards.
