What Are Divination Decks?
Divination decks are card-based systems used for guidance, reflection, spiritual practice, or intuitive reading. Each deck is built around a structured symbolic language, whether that structure follows a traditional system or an original framework created by the deck designer.
A professionally printed deck helps preserve symbolic clarity, maintain visual consistency, and present the deck as a finished product suitable for commercial distribution.
Types of Divination Decks
Different types of divination systems require different approaches to card design and printing.
Tarot card decks
Tarot card decks are the most widely recognized divination cards and are usually produced as a seventy-eight-card deck. Common tarot size is 2.75" x 4.75".
Oracle card decks
Oracle card decks are popular for intuitive and modern divination systems, with card counts typically ranging from thirty to sixty cards. Sizes are flexible, though many follow standard tarot dimensions.
Zener cards
Zener cards are mainly used for symbolic recognition and are traditionally printed as a twenty-five-card deck. These cards are usually produced in small, uniform sizes.
Lenormand cards
Lenormand cards are commonly printed as a thirty-six-card deck and are generally smaller than tarot cards. Compact sizes are preferred for practical, fast-paced readings.
Angel cards
Angel cards are often used for spiritual guidance and affirmation, most commonly produced in decks of forty to fifty cards. Medium to large card sizes are frequently chosen to support open, visually soft designs.
Rune cards
Rune cards are based on ancient symbolic systems and usually range from twenty-four to thirty cards. Square or small-format sizes are commonly used.
Kipper cards
Kipper cards are a traditional fortune-telling deck and are typically printed with thirty-six or thirty-eight cards. Their size is usually similar to lenormand cards.
Cardstock Options for Divination Deck Printing
Choosing the right cardstock is one of the most important decisions in divination deck printing, as it directly affects durability, shuffle feel, and overall presentation.
- 350 gsm premium cardstock – A thick, smooth card that balances durability with flexibility, suitable for most tarot applications.
- 310 gsm black core paper – Designed to block light and maintain opacity, ideal for decks used in professional readings.
- 300 gsm premium cardstock – Slightly thinner than 350 gsm, good for larger decks where manageability matters.
These materials offer good ink absorption, vibrant color reproduction, and a professional hand-feel. All paper types can be finished with lamination or varnish for additional protection.
Specialty Papers
We also offer unique materials for standout designs:
Holographic paper
Reflects a spectrum of colors from different angles; popular for collectors' editions.
Gold foil cardstock
Adds a metallic gold sheen to the surface for a luxurious look.
Silver foil cardstock
Similar to gold foil but with a polished silver appearance.
Surface Finishes for Divination Decks
Surface finishing enhances both the appearance and lifespan of a custom divination deck. Most professionally printed divination cards are finished on both sides to protect the artwork and improve handling.
A non-glossy coating on both sides that offers a textured feel.
A glossy coating on both sides with a subtle texture.
A smooth, velvety matte film applied to both sides, offering durable, non-reflective finish.
A shiny film applied to both sides, giving the card a sleek, high-gloss appearance.
A glossy finish applied to specific areas for a bold and distinct look.
Metallic gold foil pressed onto the card for an elegant, eye-catching detail.
Metallic silver foil applied to the card, adding a sleek, reflective accent.
Raised designs for added texture and elegance.
Metallic foil applied to the edges of the card, creating a premium and polished look from every angle.
Printed on holographic paper, which reflects rainbow-like colors when viewed from different angles.
We’ll help you choose a combination of finishes that best complements your design and fits your intended use.

Packaging plays a key role in divination deck printing, as it protects the cards and shapes the user’s first impression of the deck. Different box styles support different positioning, from everyday retail decks to premium collector editions.
Magnetic closure rigid box
A premium rigid box with a magnetic flap that snaps shut, perfect for collector's editions or high-end game sets.
Tuck end box
