Tarot - deck of 78 cards, is system of symbolical images and used as tool for reflection on one's personal life, and an aid to meditation. Tarot is usually a deck of 78 cards composed of the major arcana, consisting of 22 trump cards; the minor arcana consisting of 56 cards: ten cards numbered from Ace to 10 in four different suits; traditionally batons (wands), cups, swords and coins (pentacles) (40 cards in total); and four court cards, page, knight, queen and king in the same four suits (4 per suit, thus 16 court cards in total). The structure and imagery of tarot decks are used for spiritual, esoteric, psychological, occult and/or divinatory purposes.
Not adequate. it mentions nowhere that Tarot cards were made for card games and that people today still play Tarot card games. This article is epic fail and it stereotypes card games by giving people the wrong idea that Tarot cards are only used for Tarot card reading. Tarot cards are also used for gaming!
