Understanding Tarot Card Groups
A standard tarot deck has 78 cards, divided into two main groups: the Major Arcana and the Minor Arcana. Each group has a distinct role in readings and symbolism.
Major Arcana
The Major Arcana consists of 22 cards that represent life’s major themes and turning points. From The Fool to The World, these cards describe broader spiritual and life lessons rather than day-to-day details. When Major Arcana cards appear in a reading, they often point to significant phases, decisions, or karmic themes.
Minor Arcana: Wands, Cups, Swords, and Coins
The Minor Arcana has 56 cards in four suits: Wands, Cups, Swords, and Coins (also called Pentacles). Each suit corresponds to an element and an area of life.
Wands are linked to fire and often relate to energy, action, creativity, and ambition. The Cups suit is tied to water and deals with emotions, relationships, and intuition. Swords, associated with air, relate to thoughts, communication, conflict, and clarity. Coins (or Pentacles) connect to earth and themes such as work, money, health, and the physical world.
Within each suit you’ll find Ace through Ten plus Page, Knight, Queen, and King—giving you a full set of meanings for every card. Use the links above to explore each tarot card’s symbolism and interpretation for love, career, health, and more.
