Tarot
Tarot helps people probe their subconscious mind to uncover the deep hidden secrets using images and symbols.
When cards are reversed, they do not always read as direct opposites. When in the upright position, they are external energy. Whereas when reversed, it’s internal. Another term that can be used is private or self when the cards are flipped.
For example, [03. The Empress] upright is about nurturing outwardly. When reversed, it implies to self-nurture. The [Eight of Cups] is about escape; therefore, the reversed Eight of Cups is about a private escape (one no one knows about).
Another way to look at a reversal in a reading is to recognize that perhaps the querent hasn't yet learned the master lesson from the previous card. Â When referring to [Court Cards] reversed, they represent the card's negative and weakest qualities.

Major Arcana Intro
Within the Major Arcana, the Fool represents a journey from the innocent first step into the unknown. It begins without a care in the world and moves all the way to the end of a cycle, [The World]. This adventure, more than just a path, is a transformative journey that represents the wisdom gained along the path in preparation for the next cycle in life. It's a journey that can inspire and motivate you to embrace the unknown and grow.
The 22 cards represent the spiritual lessons in life as symbols to help guide your path to enlightenment. These cards represent the growth required to rise to the next vibration. They are the main events you’re about to undertake and move past. The minor cards help you understand the Major card's meaning so you can achieve the next level after you’ve reached The World.
Example
[The Magician]. You have everything needed to move forward in life. But what is it you need to move forward with? This is where the minor comes into play. You draw the [3 of Swords]. Your heart is broken, but you now possess all the tools to overcome the pain. With the magician, you’ll no longer fester in the games that brought you to the point of heartache.
When the Majors appear, they represent situations or themes that may not always be in your control. Something bigger may be at play, like divine action and external forces. However, you're not alone when these cards appear; positive outside energy is within reach to help guide you through these challenges.

The Four Suits and Relation to the Elements
The Minor Arcana is the commentary of the Major in a reading. It's the little details that cover the four aspects of life. These suits show the cause and effect of the actions and decisions taken. They help you produce the results you seek.
[Wands / Fire]
[Cups / Water]
[Swords / Air]
[Pentacles / Earth]
With the Minor Arcana you have full control over your decisions and actions as they don’t reflect the spiritual aspects. Instead, they clarify the meaning behind the Major Arcana, which shows areas needing improvement.
Yet, these four suits guide you on your path forward with spiritual development, whereas the Major shows areas needing growth.
If most cards in a spread show the four elements, it hints to us a little-known secret. You control your destiny by the steps you take. The ability to manifest your reality lies within you. All that’s required, you must believe. And when you do, you’ll witness miracles as your ability and strength catapult you forward.
The Suits
When learning the Minor Arcana, there’s a simple approach to help get started without knowing all the keywords and meanings. You will combine the interpretation of the associated number & element. This provides a general idea of what the card represents.
Once you understand the suit’s high-level meaning, you can pick up any tarot deck and start reading with it, allowing you to easily explore different decks.
Tip To Learn the Cards
Step 1:
Look at the symbol on a card.
The [2 of Wands]. It’s a fire card.
Step 2:
Look at the relationship of the person to the symbols in the scene.
You see a person holding onto their passion/career as they set their sights on a new goal. The inspiration from the one. With one of their wands bolted down, it implies something will protect them and give them the power to overcome any challenges that await.
Another tip: when you see an archway in any card, it can represent initiating new opportunities. Think of the Aces and how potential awaits.
Step 3:
Start a [tarot journal]. Note the card and what each scene means to you.
