Reply:the original tarot deck was in existence for thousands of years and today is most commonly seen as playing cards.
rider realised the deck had limitations as it represented the lives we live and introduced the major arcana, this part of the deck brings forward the hidden feelings, higher purpose, or inner selves which are available to improve or understand life and depicts lifes journey, the challenges, and the tools.
there are some truly aweful meanings out there which can alter the structure to a degree that becomes unusable.
the original rider deck is full of symbolism that tweaks your inner consciousness so has psychological significance.
the word tarot now implies a deck that is complex, containing two levels and even if different in many ways still follows the orginal idea of a deck, many will reference the equivalent rider card. the main difference is the creators directive, some area simply visually different which appeal to a person for that reason,and others have badly researched meanings.
even where the meanings are misunderstood you will read your cards with thosemeanings in tact and that will be what they mean as you draw them and interpret them.
there are many good tarot meaning websites and books around, so as long as you like your cards you can apply the meanings you like the best and that will be right for you.
this book has cards attached but is one of the best for learners Juliet Sharmon Burke has written many books to each tarot reading. http://www.fishpond.co.nz/product_info.p...
Reply:There are no right or wrong Tarot card meanings. The meanings often vary depending on the publisher. It is interesting you should post your question under "card games" for that is the purpose for which the Tarot was created. Tarot was not used for divination until long after the creation of the deck. Tarot was created for card games and people in Europe still play Tarot card games.

(If you scroll down the page you'll see the "advanced interpretations" which tell you everything you've ever wanted to know about each card).

Reply:Yes, but different themed decks have different writers. I stick with basic meanings because they were the first and best. [if it aint broke don't fix it].
