You face challenges in getting on with others. There may be disagreements about the best actoins to take at this time.

You are engaged in a successful partnership, union or relationship. Any activities or commitments undertaken with others will reap rewards at this time.

For those in a relationship, the appearance of this card denotes a deepening commitment and potentially marriage.

Considered one of the most positive cards in the deck, the 3 of Wands assures success in any undertaking.  The actions you have taken, or are considering taking in the near future, will pay dividends.

Decisions, decisions.  You are seeking something new in addition to what you already have.  Perhaps your business is ready to expand or you are prepared to take on new responsibilities at work. 

All the Aces in Tarot represent potential - something new and exciting on the verge of manifestation.  Fresh energy is about to burst into your life and shake things up. This card bodes well for your health, your career, your creative projects - in fact, it’s just a pretty good card all round!  I’d be very happy to see it anywhere in a spread.  If you have asked about love, this card indicates passion - it’s pretty phallic, don’t you think?

If you want to get really esoteric about it, the Ace of Wands contains all the other Minor Arcana cards within it.  It is the ultimate potential! It is linked with the Sun and is the masculine counterpart to the feminine Ace of Cups, which is linked with the Moon. All of the Aces are found within Kether on the Tree of Life. 

 The suite of Wands is connected to the Element of Fire. This suite represents your passions, sexuality, physical energy and activity.  In Tarot, this suite is often linked with your career or business interests.  This is a powerful, positive, active suite.  It talks about what you are doing, as opposed to what you are thinking (Swords) or feeling (Cups).  If the question is about timing, it shows the influences at work around you now and in the very near future. Correspondences of Wands include the season of Summer and the zodiac signs of Aries, Leo and Sagittarius.

Court Cards in tarot are the people cards - the Pages (also knows as Princesses), Knights, Kings and Queens.  Each suite has a heirarchy of Court Cards.

In Tarot 101, the Pages will relate to information coming to you, the Knights to changes in your situation and the Kings and Queens to people who are influencing you.  As you build up your knowledge and experience of Tarot, or attend our classes in person, you will learn other ways of interpreting the Court Cards.

People ask me this question all the time.  My answer is always the same.  The best Tarot deck is the one you like the best.  There are so many different designs and styles - you can get decks based on Celtic Mythology, dragons, fairies, post modernism and Harry Potter.   There is no end to the variety.  (more…)
