What is Tarot?
Tarot cards began as playing cards for various games, such as Italian Tarocchini. They picked up popularity during the 15th century and spread all across Europe. By the 18th century, French occultists claimed the playing cards could be used for deviation, and that was when custom decks were first created! Two types of tarot deck came into existence, one that stayed for playing games, and the other that became what we know as ‘Tarot’ today.
The main difference between a playing card pack and a deviation pack is the inclusion of the ‘major arcana’ which are the 21 cards formed from illustrated pictures such as Death, The Moon, The Hanged Man, and so on. Both packs include The Fool (major arcana) and the ‘Joker’ playing card.Tarot card decks are made up of 78 cards: 22 major arcana and 56 minor arcana.What is Tarot used for?
Tarot cards are used for spiritual guidance and growth. People often look to the cards for answers or outlines to certain questions, be it about their love life, what they might need to change to help them grow as a person, or what unexpected pitfalls might be on the horizon. They are not used to tell the future but simply give people an outline and a guiding hand.
As with everything, it's always up for interpretation and there are always those who believe and those who are skeptical. We just really like the cards!Does this have anything to do with the other OP Tarot project from 2020?
Nope! We were inspired by the awesomeness of that one, but we missed out (curse you algorithms!) so we’re making this one!
Why OP and Tarot?
From our head mod: “This is an idea that's stayed with me for years and now I want to see it happen!” So here we are, we hope you’ll join us on our journey!
