Encyclopedia of Tarot Cards

This encyclopedia of tarot decks is arranged by title.  One deviation from standard listings is that, for ease of use, titles beginning with "Tarot of the" are arranged by subsequent object; e.g, "Tarot of the Cat People" is listed as "Cat People, Tarot of the."  

Our intention is to list all known major varieties of tarot cards, including both out-of-print decks and decks that are currently in print.  Highlighted titles are hyperlinked to other pages (either on this website or other websites) offering additional information on, and a graphic depiction of, the specific deck mentioned.
