Tarot Cards are a collectible set of cards introduced in The Sims 4: Life & Death. Sims can also use a card deck to perform tarot readings to predict the fate and future of Sims.
Tarot cards are found through favors for the Order of Lenore or by visiting the Tarot Tome Shrines in each of the three neighborhoods in Ravenwood. Once a tarot card has been acquired, Sims can unlock the "Use Intuition" interact for certain objects across the world to unlock certain tarot cards.
Players can buy a starter tarot deck in build mode, which won't grant tarot cards, but will allow for Sims to do tarot readings and give predictions as well as moodlets for Sims. Once Sims have completed the collection of all 26 tarot cards, they can form the Lady Ravendancer Tarot Deck from in their inventory; this deck behaves like an upgraded tarot deck with extra abilities, one of them to summon Lady Ravendancer Goth herself. Alternatively players can purchase this deck from the aspiration reward store for 8000 satisfaction points.
