 The '''Minor Arcana''', sometimes called the '''Lesser Arcana''', are the suit cards in a [[Tarot]] deck. Minor Arcana cards first appeared in tarot card games, with pip cards numbered one (ace) to ten, along with court cards (or face cards) in each of four suits.
-In contemporary tarot decks, the Minor Arcana are often illustrated, although this was not common prior to the publication of the [[Rider–Waite Tarot]] deck in 1910. The Sola Busca Tarot is a rare example of a pre-1800s deck that was fully illustrated.
