Tarot Major Arcana meanings

• the fool: the answer is unknown
• magician: positively, you already have you what you need. negatively, you’re being tricked/need to work something out asap
• the high priestess: you’re not allowed to know
• the empress: gives a feeling of things being okay but also reminds you that creativity can come painfully from the heart
• the emperor: you’re dealing with a brick wall (a person or otherwise) and you’re just going to have to work out how to work around it or with it and create your own structure
• the heirophant: living simply and appreciating small things. having faith day to day
• the lovers: heart vs head (it’s up to you)
• the chariot: you have to take the reigns now whether you like it or not but trusting your gut should help you know where to go
• strength: real strength is quiet. suggests a time of perseverance and being the bigger person
• the hermit: you need to work out the answer on your own. self reflect (you have possibly become out of touch with yourself) and and spend time alone. don’t ask for someone else’s opinion on the matter if you were thinking of doing so (you’re more easily led in the wrong direction at this time)
• the wheel of fortune: whatever is happening has nothing to do with you and is out of your control. it’s not karma or fate or destiny it just is. if it’s good you are not being rewarded and if it’s bad you are not being punished it is just simply happening
• justice: the outcome will be whatever you deserve (it will be fair). you will reap what you’ve sown
• the hanged man: whatever it is, you’re looking at it wrong
• death: endings
• temperance: right time, right place. patience is needed because you can’t force it. you need to learn how to be calm if there is chaos around you because you are the only thing you can control
• the devil: you’ve let something (or someone) enter or take over your life and it’s ruining you and probably strongly rooted itself in your identity and you must let it go. you’ve committed too much of your time to something that only consumes. (side note: rarely positive or about something light so i would take this warning seriously)
• the tower: rock bottom. your foundation has crumbled and you have fallen and there’s nothing you can do about it. usually the foundation wasn’t stable to begin with. (to explain further, in serious cases i would say the querent definitely knew they were doing something wrong, like committing a heinous crime and getting caught but we all have tower moments regardless and can mean losing a job or the ending of a long term relationship for example)
• the star: you don’t know the answer yet but you can trust that it’s for the best and you will be okay. this is your no. 1 sign that everything is fine and you are worrying too much
• the moon: difficult/heavy emotional time
• the sun: easy, light hearted time. if negative, which it is rarely, it means you are willfully blinding yourself and ignoring a problem
• judgement: positively, a desperate, genuine prayer is answered. it can also mean that you are being asked to do something that you don’t want to because it’s scary but you know you need to do it.
• the world: positive ending. starting anew. the energy of a yes answer
