What is the difference between a tarot deck and a non-tarot deck?
A tarot deck usually has 78 cards divided into two groups: 22 major cards and 56 minor cards in four suits.
A non-tarot deck can have any number of cards with no set structure.
A tarot deck usually has the word "tarot" in its title.
Both kinds of decks can be used for developing intuition and exploring questions.
