Welcome back Folks!
Life was keeping me busy over the last days, but now I can continue the overview over the meaning of each tarot card from the major arcana. Again I want you to remember: this overview is supposed to give you a quick access to the meaning of each card, but it’s not necessarily complete and when you are using it, to interpret your tarot session, it might as well have a completely different meaning!
On the other hand, I’ll do my best to give you the most fitting and most common description. This way I’m quite sure, you’ll be able to find a meaning that fits your tarot session.
Now without further words, on to the next cards!
- The Hierophant: traditional education, the teaching of heaven to earth and the religion itself. Also associated with advise from a friend or teacher (but not necessarily the truth!). Some assume, the teacher forms the asking one to his likings.
- The Lovers: the impulse, that send one “out of the garden”. Can be sexual desire as well as a duty or the wish to go on an adventure. Once one leaves the garden, there is no turning back.
- The Chariot: a battle or conquest that one can win, if he has the qualities (like willpower for example). The Battle is usually an external challenge.
- Strenght: inner discipline and control. While The Chariot represents an external challenge, Strenght usually means an internal struggle with desires, impulses or negative traits like anger of pride.
- The Hermit: On the one hand the need to isolate oneself to internalize a lesson. On the other hand the need to share ones knowledge with others.
I hope, the second part of my serial about the meaning of each tarot card of the major arcana will help you, to gain faster results when searching for a short overview. I will definitely write the 3rd part as soon as possible – write down your experiences with this guide and I promise to use your advise to enhance this serial!
