8A deck of tarot cards includes 78 cards. In comparison to the 52-card deck of playing cards most people are used to, this can seem pretty intimidating. But tarot cards are easy to learn and fun to read! Reading tarot cards is an art more than a skill. There are many beliefs that go along with tarot cards and you basically have to learn to trust yourself and analyze what the cards are trying to tell you. For example, if a card falls out of the deck while you are shuffling them you should never put that card back in the deck. The card fell out for a reason. In a similar fashion, you will learn to read the meanings of the cards to others and explain to them what the cards are showing them. It can be a very deep and spiritual experience for both the reader and the client.
