If the tarot deck of today consists of 78 cards, what the tarot deck of yesteryears consist of?
Early European sources describe a deck with typically fifty two cards, like a modern deck with no jokers. The seventy eight card tarot resulted from adding the twenty two trump cards to an early fifty six card variant (fourteen cards per suit). ~Wikipedia

Is it really a good idea to use playing cards in place of a real tarot deck?
I don't like to use them, it really is just a preference in what kind of card you use.

Is it really necessary to draw the cards with one specific hand or is any hand ok?
Not necessary but helps the flow of energy through the cards.

I do not undrestand the shuffling. Do we shuffle and then seperate out the cards? Or is that just a chant?
When you shuffle the cards it's to put your question or energy into the cards so that you can get the answer through the cards.... ~ not sure what you want me to answer that.

What does the significator in the Celtic Cross formation represent?
1. Significator - (the card representing the querent or person asking the question - traditionally, one chooses an appropriate card from the pack before shuffling and dealing the other cards; however, a new tradition has begun of 'allowing' the deck to reveal the proper card by dealing this position 'blind' along with the other cards of the layout.) ~~www.spiritual.com.au
