minor arcana (tarot)

The Minor Arcana, sometimes known as the Lesser Arcana, are the suit cards in a cartomantic tarot deck. The typical suits will be Wands (Batons), Swords, Cups, and Pentacles (Coins), but many artists will create custom suits that fit their world building. There are typically 14 cards in each suit, numbered Ace through Ten, and then Page, Knight, Queen, and King, similar to a poker deck.
