Marseille Tarot Deck

Marseille Tarot Deck

The Marseille Tarot, also known as the Tarot de Marseille, is one of the oldest and most influential tarot traditions, with roots dating back to 17th-century France and earlier European card systems. This classic 78-card deck is known for its bold colors, woodcut-style artwork, and symbolic imagery that encourages intuitive reading rather than relying on detailed scenes.

Unlike many modern tarot decks, the Minor Arcana in the Marseille Tarot feature pip-style cards that emphasize numerology and elemental symbolism, while the Major Arcana preserve timeless archetypes such as The Magician, The High Priestess, and The Wheel of Fortune. This stripped-down approach allows readers to build strong interpretive skills and connect deeply with traditional tarot meanings.

The Marseille Tarot is ideal for readers who want a foundational tarot experience rooted in history, symbolism, and intuition. Whether you are a seasoned practitioner or exploring tarot’s traditional roots, this deck offers a powerful and authentic connection to centuries of divinatory practice.

Traditional Marseille Tarot deck contains 78 cards — 22 Major Arcana and 56 Minor Arcana.
