What is the difference between Tarot and Oracle card readings? Tarot is the most well-known type of divination cards. They use a very specific structure, breaking up into two parts: the Minor Arcana and the Major Arcana. There are 22 Major Arcana cards, each representing life situations and/or experiences. These cards follow a story, very similar to the Hero’s Journey. The first card is the Fool and the last card is the World. As you go from the Fool to the World there are opportunities to learn from all the cards in between. The Minor Arcana has a similar storytelling structure, but these cards are broken up into four suit types: Cups, Pentacles, Wands, and Swords. There are 56 Minor Arcana cards, bringing a full tarot card deck to 78 cards total. The Minor Arcana cards resemble the traditional playing deck used for Poker, Spades, or Solitaire. The Cups are represented by the hearts, the Pentacles are represented by the diamonds, the Wands are represented by the clubs, and the Swords are represented by the spades. Whereas a traditional card deck only has 3 court cards (Jack, Queen, and King), the Minor Arcana has 4 court cards for each suit (Page, Knight, Queen, and King). Each suit represents a journey or story that corresponds with that type. The Cups represent a journey of emotions and creativity and water. The Pentacles represent a journey of money and wealth and earth. The Wands represent a journey of spirituality and taking action and fire. The Swords represent a journey of intellect and power and air. Tarot is great for long term type of questions that speak to your overall life. Oracle card decks are the ones that have gained momentum in popularity because there’s no set structure for how each oracle deck is created. Anyone can create an oracle deck and assign to it whatever purpose and outline they want. Coaches often create their own oracle decks to use with their clients, while artists often create decks to showcase their creativity. When deciding which deck is right for you, the best thing to do is understand what exactly you want to gain from a reading. A good reading will offer you the insight to reflect on whatever you need to reflect on or gain clarity with. Oracle decks are great for short term types of questions that require you to do some inner reflection and soul searching. What should I focus on this month? I’m stuck between two choices. How do I figure out my purpose?
