Okay, so I wanted to get into tarot reading, and the first thing I realized was, “Woah, there are different sized cards?” I had no clue! I just figured tarot cards were, you know, the size of tarot cards. Turns out, not so much.

My journey started with a trip to a local bookstore. I grabbed a deck that looked pretty, but when I got home and tried to shuffle them, it was like trying to shuffle a deck of oversized playing cards! They were huge and super awkward to handle.
My First Attempt (and Fail)
- Bought a visually appealing deck.
- Realized they were way too big for my hands.
- Struggled to shuffle them properly.
- Felt pretty frustrated!
So, back to the drawing board. I did some digging online. I quickly found out that there are a few common sizes. I’m no expert but it.
I decided to get a standard-sized deck, and wow, what a difference! They fit perfectly in my hands, shuffling was a breeze, and I could actually focus on the readings instead of wrestling with the cards.

The Size Solution
- It fit my hands way better.
- Shuffling was easy.
- I could finally do it.
In short, it is important, pay attention to the dimensions, and don’t just grab the first pretty deck you see! You’ll thank me.
