People Swear These Tarot Card Decks Are Super Easy To Learn

By now, you've probably experimented with meditation, purchased some crystals, dabbled in reiki, or maybe even seen a psychic. It's no secret that spirituality is on the rise. In fact, according to the Pew Research Center, 75 percent of Americans identify as being spiritual. If you're one of them, you'll know that tarot and oracle card decks play a major part in some spiritual lifestyles, whether you live by the rules and advice of regular tarot card readings or you simply find them to be a fun past time.

Either way, tarot card readings can be a seriously pricey hobby. But, the good thing is that it's actually surprisingly easy to learn how to do readings on your own—take it from me! I purchased a tarot card deck and one year later am doing readings for myself and friends on at least a weekly basis. Not only is it is a money saver and fun hobby, learning how to do tarot card readings on your own can be super empowering. The first rule of tarot? There are no black and white answers. You have all the answers within yourself and don't need to pay anyone else to get them.

But if that's just a little too out there for you, I hear you. That's why there's also a guidebook attached to every unique tarot card deck below (because no, not all are made equal). There's a deck portraying history's most famous feminists, one for poetry lovers, a deck featuring LGBTQ-friendly art, and even one that comes paired with affirmations (my personal fave!). Choose one that speaks to you, or grab one as a gift for your spiritual BFF.

You're about to become a heck of a lot more popular in your friend circle. See below for the 11 best tarot card decks for beginners, pros, and everyone in between.
