What's the difference between Tarot & Oracle?Updated a year ago

Tarot - Tarot was first introduced into the world in the 1400's, and has a particular set system and structure. There's a major and minor arcana; with subtext themes of 4 suits, elements, numerology and more. The major arcana are the life changing or defining moments. Minor represent various everyday areas of life. Tarot structure is always the same, artists decks will usually create their own interpretation of the original cards, which is what makes them unique.


Oracle - An Oracle deck can be any number of cards and is created around a theme or subject matter, for example our best seller Child Of The Universe is created around astrology. Other Oracle decks can be created around the idea of  angels, Earth elements, love messages, celestial beings, crystals and so on. These don’t usually have complex structures to them and usually come with a mini guidebook. However our deck - Child of the Universe, was meticulously created and structured by Britta and comes with a thorough 420 page guidebook to help guide you through your practice. If you’re into Astrology we highly recommend this deck. Oracle decks are usually easier to read and use, if you're draw to the 'theme' of an Oracle deck, then we highly recommend exploring what you're drawn to.
