Tarot | While in the [[Mundane]] world, Tarot as a form of divination only emerged during the 18th century, they were used by [[Magi]] for similar purposes way longer. As magical artifacts, Tarot cards are used for divination by focussing on the specific aspects each card represents. Unlike traditional Tarot readings, where cards are drawn randomly to gain insight into a situation, the magical nature of these Tarot cards allows the reader to use specific cards as a focus to access deeper truth or hidden information. | ||

This game, which is still played in parts of Europe, is a trick-taking game similar to bridge or spades but with its own unique rules and structure. | |||
