Tarots are composed of 78 cards that are each unique with its own tarot card meaning. The history of the Tarot dates back to the mid 15th century where these playing cards were used in various parts of Europe and were used to play a group of card games such as Italian tarocchini and French tarot. The Tarots have also found use by mystics and occultists as a map of mental and spiritual pathways.
Tarot cards are used throughout Europe to play card games. In English speaking countries, Tarot cards are now used for divinatory purposes.
