The '''Emperor's Tarot''' (aka '''Imperial Tarot''') is a pack of seventy-eight psychoactive liquid-crystal wafers that are linked to the thoughts of the [[Emperor]]. The Tarot, commonly believed to have been designed by the Emperor himself, is used throughout the [[Imperium]] as a form of [[divination]].

There are major arcana trumps and four suits of lesser arcanoi{{Fn|12}}: Discordia, Adeptio, Creatio and Mandatio.{{Fn|10}}

Discordia is the suit of strife, but can also signify authority. These cards contain enemies of the Imperium, xenos and warp entities. Adeptio is the suit of vigorous work, heroes, servants and great deeds. Creatio is the suit of fertility. Mandatio is the suit of government, stability, wealth and leadership.{{Fn|10}}{{Fn|13}}

Many different decks have been produced over time and sometimes these decks use different names for some cards or entire suits. The suits called Executeria (Arcana of the unknown, exploration, future and mind){{Fn|13}} and Concordia{{Fn|7}} are two examples. Other decks even use some major arcans as parts of a suit.{{Fn|13}}
