Tarot has 78 cards, 22 Major Arcana (the big life themes) and 56 Minor Arcana (the everyday moments, split across four suits). Every card has an upright meaning and a reversed one, and the meaning shifts based on where it sits in the spread.
These guides break down each card the way a reader actually uses them, not just dictionary definitions, but what they tend to mean when you draw them about love, career, or a specific situation.
