Like a TCG or Pokémon, Guardians are tasked with finding all 56 Opaque Cards in Season of the Witch's Deck of Whispers. To take the headache out of things, here's where they are and what they do.
Update: November 7, 2023
Added the final Minor Arcana Whisper Card, A Parting Gift
Where are all Arcana Cards in Destiny 2 Season of the Witch?
After the weekly maintenance had concluded, Bungie snuck in another Minor Arcana Card. Labeled A Parting Gift, it is one of the final ingredients to complete the Imbaru Engine. The card is located in The Altars of Summoning. After loading in, immediately go right and enter the Altar of Feracity. There will be a pillar on the right with the card atop it.
Major Arcana
The Major Arcana Cards, of which there are 12, provide the deck-building aspect of this season. These cards are found through Opaque Cards and had a timed release throughout the first few weeks of Season 22. By the time Guardians work their way through The Bladed Path quest, they should have all the Major Arcana.
