The Tarot is a deck of cards that has been used as a form of divination for over 500 years. The Tarot was used as a type of game in Italy. The deck was quickly adapted for use as a way to tell the future. The Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn was one of the first occult groups to make the Tarot popular. The Tarot is the most popular divination tool in the West.
Some of the Tarot decks used today are:
