In a tarot card deck there are 14 Cups or hearts (depending on the deck), 14 Swords (Spades?), 14 Wands (clubs?), 14 Pentacles (Diamonds?) and 22 "royalty" cards (these are what I call people cards or hierarchy cards. Ex. The Fool, The Moon, The emperor, etc. etc.) In a playing card deck there are only 13 of each suit, so you are 1 card short of each suit and then you would need almost an other half deck to do your "people" cards. Not to be a downer, but unless you can over come these problems, I don't think you can accurately do a tarot reading with playing cards.
