Complete Book of Tarot: Fact 1: The tarot was invented as a card game during the Renaissance by Italian artists who incorporated images and ideas from ancient Greek and Roman mythology, which probably included themes derived from the cult of Thoth Hermes Trismegistus. The gypsies, who originated in India, were not ancient Egyptian priests and did not arrive in Europe until well after the Italians produced the first tarot decks.

Complete Book of Tarot: The Sacred Practices spread is usually performed once weekly by separating the deck into major arcana, court cards, and numbered pip cards. You select one card at random from each grouping. The major arcana card represents the week’s spiritual path. The pip card signifies a contemplative practice that will guide you along that sacred path. Finally, the court card indicates a personality posture, that is, the attitudes and behaviors that will assist you in your spiritual practice. The combination of these three cards offers a spiritual lesson to contemplate during the week ahead.
