With one of the most interesting classes in the most unexpected day
I figured out how to humanize my 16 Tarot court cards, to make them into individual human beings
A challenge placed in front of me for nearly 18 months now,
has turned into an understanding, with what D, as people call her, explained to me.
There are four suits in the Tarot deck, beautiful and individual.
Wands
Cups
Swords
Pentacles
They each have their own element property as well which helps understand them further, and sometimes even combining them with the zodiac sign can help.
Wands- Fire
Cups- Water
Swords- Air
Pentacles - Earth
Well as I know of it now, I can say, that each suit, for example Wands, has its own nuclear family. It includes, a King, a Queen, a Knight and a Page. Four members, each playing a different role in their respective household. Thus a King representing, the member who holds the solidarity, the responsibility and most of all the decision making. So on reveals each ones characteristics.
All together, all 16 members become so interesting. Identifiable, and one is able to know which family one would go to for a certain query. For example, with a query about art, one would definitely go to the family of Cups.
You know, life really answers your questions in the most unexpected of ways! I mean through songs, a conversation you overhear, or someone telling you something, or reinforcing a statement. But today, is even more special, for I discovered, the joint family I was always looking for in my deck of cards, which will always be with me. And further more, they've been right under my nose, and yet it will be two years soon since I started my wonderful journey of change with them.
Tarot cards, aren't only for divination purposes, or answer seeking purposes. They represent energy, the law of attraction, and most of all they can be mirrors to characteristics you most need, or need less of. To take it one step forward, some of the Major Arcana cards, are fascinating! Like number 16, the Tower card, one can really relate to this card, with a personal experience of a crisis which takes place in life. They are the most symbolic messages, through their image, through their message and most of all through the personal connection one forms with them.
I love them!
