Major Arcana
The soul's journey through life's biggest thresholds.
The 22 trumps. Each one is a distinct archetype — The Fool's leap, The Tower's shake, The Star's quiet hope. When these show up in a reading, they name the big theme. Pay attention.
Cups
Emotions, relationships, intuition, the inner world.
The 14 Cups are your emotional life. Love, friendship, grief, joy, the felt sense of being with people. When Cups dominate a reading, the question is really about connection and what you feel.
Pentacles
Material reality, work, body, what you build.
The 14 Pentacles (sometimes called Coins or Disks) are the physical plane. Money, job, home, health, the slow work of making something real. When Pentacles show up, the reading is grounded in what's tangible.
Swords
Thought, conflict, clarity, the mind's edge.
The 14 Swords live in the mind. Decisions, arguments, doubts, clarity after confusion. Swords often show up in hard conversations and hard choices. They cut, but they also see clearly.
Wands
Drive, passion, creativity, what moves you forward.
The 14 Wands are your fire — ambition, creative work, the projects that light you up, the conflicts that come from wanting things hard. When Wands dominate, the question is about what you're moving toward.
