how many tarot cards are there in a pack?

Answer 1

56+22=78


In card games, the 22 major arcana cards were trump cards, and the 56 minor arcana cards in four suits are similar to today's standard deck of 52 cards in four suits, with the obvious difference being that the tarot deck has fourteen cards in each suit.

Answer 2

Most modern tarot decks consist of 78 cards with allegorical representations today used for divination. A typical tarot deck consists of:

-The major arcana, consisting of 22 trump cards (sometimes referred to as keys):
The Fool, The Magician, The High Priestess. The Empress, The Emperor, The Hierophant, The Lovers, The Chariot, Strength, The Hermit, Wheel of Fortune, Justice, The Hanged Man, Death, Temperance, The Devil, The Tower, The Star, The Moon, The Sun, Judgement, and The World.
-The minor arcana, consisting of 56 cards (sometimes referred to as pips):
Forty cards in four different suits of ten — traditionally batons or wands, cups, swords, coins or pentacles, and
Sixteen court cards of four per suit: the page, knight, queen, and king.

Answer 4

Tarot consists of 78 strikingly vivid, pictorial cards, divided into two sections commonly called the major and minor arcana. The major arcana consists of 22 cards with names such as the Magician, the Empress, Strength, the Tower, the Chariot.

A primary and sometimes a secondary meaning is assigned to each of these cards. For instance, in popular occult, the Magician represents will power, the Emperor: realization, the Chariot: triumph, the Hermit: prudence, and the Devil: fate.

The minor arcana, which consists of 56 cards, is divided into four suits of wands, cups, swords and coins. Each suit, which is said to represent a different level of consciousness, has 10 cards plus a King, Queen, Knight and Page. From these cards have come our modem deck of playing cards with the suits of diamonds, hearts, clubs and spades.

Answer 5

Tarot is a set of seventy-eight cards, each featuring different symbolic pictures. A standard Tarot deck is made up of 22 cards called the major arcana or trumps, and four suits of 14 cards - similar to playing cards - called the minor arcana or pip cards.

Answer 6

Just a note on the Tarot. There are 78 cards comprising two decks. The Major Arcana has 22 cards and The Minor Arcana 56. Originally only the Major Arcana were illustrated and the Minor Arcana was similar to a set of traditional playing cards with four suits. A tarot deck’s seven of cups, appearing similar to the seven pips on a seven of hearts in normal playing cards.

But the Rider-Waite Tarot changed all that with illustrations for all major and minor arcana cards. Most decks with illustrated minor arcana are inspired by the artwork of the Rider-Waite deck. This makes the Rider-Waite a good deck for learning the Tarot because if you do want to learn meanings of all the cards, once you understand the Rider-Waite you will relate to most other decks too. http://www.psychic-junkie.com/develop-psychic-ability.html
