Tarot Cards have been around since the middle of the fifteenth century. It is said that an artist created the first deck of picture cards for an Italian game called Tarocchi - four suits of fourteen cards each (Minor Arcana) , plus twenty-two cards (Major Arcana). There are a total of 78 cards and in a reading, they paint a picture of you. The four suits consist of Wands (action/initiation) / Cups (emotion; intuition)/Swords (communication; mental activity; strife) and Pentacles (possessions / money; physical). The Minor Arcana depict everyday life while the Major Arcana depict major things going on in your life .Â
