There are 2 main parts to A deck of Tarot Cards.

The Major Arcana and The Minor Arcana.

The Major Arcana are the cards of power and mystery. These cards touch on all the great powers in the universe. Their names alone conjure up rich images: Strength, Death, the Devil, Justice, the Sun, the Moon, etc. When these images are combined with the illustrations on the cards, the powers make themselves known.

The Minor Arcana is divided into four suits, Cups, Pentacles, Swords, and Wands.
Within each suit there are two components:
The Court Cards: Page, Knight, Queen, and King, and the numbered cards


Suit of Wands: Think of ideas

Suit of Cups: Think of emotions

Suit of Swords:Think of action

Suit of Pentacles:Think of manifestation

Pages: This is the child within us. This is a time for flexibility, A time for new beginnings and development.

Knight: This is a time for exploration, adventure and energy. This is the time to make a name for yourself.

Queen: The feminine side of our being. This represents the development of our nurturing, loving and caring aspects.

King: Where the Queen is our feminine side, the King is our masculine side. This is leadership and authority, self control, discipline and principles, also how we see others and how others see us.
