The Minor Arcana
If the Major Arcana are the great chapters of life — the turning points, the destiny-shaping lessons —
then the Minor Arcana are the pages in between.
They are the footsteps along the path,
the cups we drink from,
the swords we cross,
the wands we carry,
and the coins we hold in our hands.
These cards weave the tapestry of our everyday existence.
They speak of conversations and choices,
moments of joy and moments of challenge,
the quiet growth we hardly notice,
and the shifts in direction that change everything.
Four suits hold their wisdom:
• Wands — the flame of Fire. Passion, creation, ambition, the spark that calls us to act.
• Cups — the flow of Water. Love, connection, intuition, and the tides of the heart.
• Swords — the wind of Air. Thought, truth, conflict, and the clarity that follows the storm.
• Pentacles — the roots of Earth. Stability, prosperity, home, and the work that sustains us.
When the Minor Arcana walk beside the Majors, they reveal how life’s great lessons will unfold in the here and now.
They turn the abstract into the tangible, the distant into the present.
They paint the picture in full colour — showing us where we stand, where we are moving, and what we can shift to change the story.
The Minors remind us:
It is not only the grand events that shape us,
but the thousand small moments through which we live our lives.
In this workshop, we will journey into the heart of Tarot through the lens of the Minor Arcana —
exploring their symbols, their stories, and their guidance,
so that you may read not just the headlines of a life,
but the rich and intricate story written between them.
