Understanding the Four Suits
The Minor Arcana's 56 cards are divided into four suits, each governing a different domain of life and corresponding to one of the four classical elements.
- Wands (Fire) — Drive, ambition, career, creativity, passion
- Cups (Water) — Emotions, relationships, dreams, intuition
- Swords (Air) — Thoughts, conflict, communication, truth
- Pentacles (Earth) — Money, work, health, the material world
When a reading is dominated by one suit, pay attention — life is strongly emphasizing that area right now.
