Tarot cards have a long, mysterious history — part documented fact, part myth, part spiritual evolution.

1. Origins in the 1300s–1400s: Not mystical (yet)

The earliest known tarot cards appeared in northern Italy in the early 15th century.
They were not spiritual tools at first — they were luxury playing cards used by nobility for a game called trionfi (meaning “triumphs”).

These early decks, known as Tarocchi, included four suits and a set of special trump cards. They were hand-painted, lavish, and meant for entertainment.

2. The Major Arcana emerges

As the decks evolved, the trump cards became what we now call the Major Arcana — archetypal images like The Fool, The Empress, The Hermit, and The Sun.
Even then, they weren’t considered mystical.

Symbolic? Yes.
Esoteric? Not yet.

They simply reflected medieval culture, social roles, virtues, and moral lessons.

3. 1700s: The Occult Awakening

Tarot stepped into the mystical world in the 18th century when French occultists (notably Antoine Court de Gébelin) claimed the symbols came from ancient Egyptian wisdom.

This wasn’t historically accurate — but it transformed how the world viewed tarot.

Suddenly, tarot became:

• a spiritual map

• a tool of divination

• a symbolic system for understanding the soul

From here, tarot became intertwined with Hermeticism, astrology, numerology, and Kabbalah.

4. 1800s–1900s: Tarot becomes a true spiritual system

The next major shift came from esoteric groups like:

• The Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn

• Theosophical movements

They expanded tarot into a complete metaphysical structure.

In 1909, the most famous deck in history was created:

The Rider–Waite–Smith Tarot

Designed by Pamela Colman Smith and guided by Arthur Edward Waite, this deck revolutionized tarot because the Minor Arcana were fully illustrated, making intuitive reading easier.

This deck set the foundation for most modern interpretations.

5. Modern Era: Tarot as Spiritual Guidance

In the last 50 years, tarot evolved again — moving away from fortune-telling and into:

• spiritual growth

• energy reading

• trauma healing

• soul-purpose guidance

• intuitive development

Today, tarot is a tool for:

• tapping into intuition

• decoding energy

• receiving spiritual messages

• understanding life themes

• aligning with one’s soul path

It has become less about “predicting the future” and more about reading the energetic possibilities you are currently creating.

In short…

Tarot began as a medieval card game, was adopted by mystics in the 18th century, transformed into an esoteric system in the 19th century, and today is a powerful intuitive tool for guidance, healing, and soul alignment.
