The Meaning of Each Tarot Card

Tarot predictions rely on tarot card meaning and the tarot readers ability to understand this, each individual card can have many different meanings and represents something in relation to the symbols on them. Often times we do not fully comprehend the full tarot card meaning in relation to other cards in a spread and this is best interpreted by an experienced psychic reader who also uses their intuition and connection to spirit when doing a spread. Some people advocate, that you should learn the full meaning of all the 78 cards in the deck, my feeling is you should allow the cards to talk to your via your intuition.

Tarot card reading has evolved over the years; for people who are no strangers to the Kabbalah or alchemy, the symbols similarity cannot pass unnoticed. Thus, with symbols being added on all sorts of occasions, the decks we have available at present are very complex. We can only imagine the degree of complexity resulting from the adding of customization elements that make tarot card meaning even more subtle. Thus, many amateur philosophers choose to give their personal explanations to certain aspects from alchemy or the Kabbalah.

The meaning of each tarot card varies depending on the interpretation; thus, a single card receives different explanations based on the location of the card in the spread and the meaning of the other cards in its vicinity. Very often, based on the reader's own judgment and common sense, a tarot card meaning can prove little relevance for the question under debate and thus be discarded. The cards in the Major Arcana insist on a distinct symbolism, while those in the Minor Arcana stand for the traditional alchemical elements. Thus, the swords correspond to the air, the cups to the water, the pentagrams/circles to the earth and the wands to fire.

In general terms a tarot card meaning can show a possible choice on an individual's life's journey. The question is is this person on the wrong path on the right path? This tarot card meaning tends to point to the Major Acana cards in the spread where each card points to a life journey. For example the magician points to a path towards wisdom, the fool is the beginning(a tarot deck is based on the journey of the fool), self balance is indicated by the High priestess, whilst love, pleasure, and wealth are indicated by the empress, and then we have the emperor who expresses power and authority.
