I live in North Kolkata. I want to buy Tarot Deck urgently. Can anyone please tell me from where to buy Rider Waite Tarot Deck in Kolkata?

TarotTrumps answers:

If you have New Age or Metaphysical book stores in India, they would have them. Otherwise, it is best to do an online google search. FIrst do a search using a close location. If you don’t find them there, do a general search. I know there are tons of sites that would sell them

TarotTrumps answers:

I read from the Thoth deck so the images may vary slightly.

You are represented by the Works card, it is in reference to alchemical work and a time of transition. You are being crossed by the prince of cups he is the Air of Emotion. He is a very focused young man and while he is doing many things at once he is not doing all of them well. He is very close to the water and has not even noticed. The foundation is Adjustment (Justice in your deck) this the Zodical Trump of Libra. It is about balancing Venus earthly and airy natures. Above you is Happiness, it is emotion in abundence. It is Jupiters expansion in Pisces watery nature and they are very happy together. Behind you is the Death card. This is a letting go of old ideas or bad habits. This is Scorpios watery nature and an indicator of change. Since you are being represented by the Work card those two are related. In front of you in the Knight of Wands. This is a card of new beginnings and he is the Fire of Fire. In his hand is the Ace of Wands. He is the creative spark generator. He is focused movement.

The hidden influences are Indolence (8 of Cups). This is also related to the Death card and speaks of mispent or wasted emotional efforts. This is in Saturns restrictive nature and Pisces sense of expansion is just crushed here. Your hidden influence is the Queen of Pents. She is the emotional side of material security. She has a goat representing Capricorn and is surveying the landscape for options. She is representing your drive to make a better material existence for yourself in an emotionally responsible way. Hopes and fears is Sorrow. You are worried that your choices will have left you in a restricted place too far inside your own head. You are concerned about being emotionally lonely due to your thoughts as opposed to actions. The final outcome is the 6 of Disks ( Success). This is a balanced card of material sucess. Whatever your choices are they will end in very materially successful sort of way.

Good luck and enjoy!

Chris asks…

Does anyone know the name of this variety of tarot?

A time ago I saw in www.aeclectic.net a particular kind of tarot that called my attention, it was based on the Rider Waite Tarot, but in this one, you see the cards from behind, for instance you didnt see the face of The Magician, you saw his back… I tried to find it again, but i was unable to… Does anyone knows the name of this tarot???

TarotTrumps answers:

Wow, sounds interesting but I tried to find it also with no luck

Your Questions About Minor Arcana

Richard asks…

Tarot people: 2 of swords, Ace of wands and 10 of coins/pentacles?

Can’t fully crack the meaning of this reading, since I am only just now getting fully acquainted with all the minor arcana. I asked whether this person was going to get married during the next 12 months, and got the 2 of Swords for an answer, and the Ace of wands and the 10 of coins, by this order, for further explaining into the future.

Help please! Tk you!
Wow now I actually got the 4 of wands itself.. I guess that is a capital yes, right!?
Man I still have a lot of training to do on this. The cards just never tell me, it’s like it either wont happen at all, or it’s still in secrecy. It could be related to the fact that I am not exactly all that into getting married anyway, and as for the work endeavour.. yes it has already started, I’m applying for a PhD overseas. I love this person like I never loved anyone before, but marriage is a bit way out of my comfort zone, for now at least. I’m 29 …still have a lot to do with my life, and only this one to do it! Settling down into a married woman’s life can wait until I’m done with a few projects first! Being with him again this next year would already be great, I’ll be busier than ever, but never too busy for what could be the love of my life, at least to date! lol We’ll see… Thank you so much for your answer, it was really helpful.. and may God provide indeed!

TarotTrumps answers:

I don’t see marriage in these cards.
You’ve 3 cards and 3 element here (air, fire and earth).
The element that is missing is water so nothing about relationships or feelings.

2 of Swords is a agreement, contract or binding.
Ace of wands can be new home or job.
10 of Pentacles is a good card for money but more so in the long term not immediate future.

I’d say you’ll be going overseas for the PhD and it should setup you up well in life.

Maria asks…

Tarot card help?

i have a set of tarot cards, and also a book that came along with it. The book tells me the major arcana upright and reversed, but for the minor, it only tells me the upright, does it have anything for the reversed? or does it mean it both ways. Befor it explaines the cards indivuadly, it says what the whole suit means, ands also upside down, but, is it the same for each card reversed?

TarotTrumps answers:

The study of the reversed cards is best left to those who fully grasp the meanings of the upright cards. When you include the reversed meanings, basically it means that you are studying a 156 card deck!

Plus, the positions of the cards in relation to each other make things even more complex.

That is just too much for a novice. The upright meanings alone can be confusing enough. I recommend learning the basics before adding the more complex, advanced interpretations.

Wands Court Cards in a Tarot Deck

Ace of Wands from the Rider-Waite deck

Ace of Wands from the Rider-Waite deck

Author: Victor Epand

Tarot card decks are divided into the Major and Minor Arcane. The Minor Arcane, which deals with everyday or common occurrences, is made up of fifty six cards divided into four elemental suits: Wands (fire), Cups (water), Swords (air) and Coins (earth).

Each suit contains ten cards that start with Ace, followed by two then proceeding on to ten. Then there are four court cards: the Page, Knight, Queen and King.

The Ace of the suit sums up the overall theme. The numbered cards in the center clarify what has or will happen and what can be done. The personifications of the court cards represent ways we can exist in the world and how that tactic could benefit or harm us. In certain Tarot patterns, they represent real people- either ourselves or someone we interact with.

The suit of Wands carries overall themes of action, creativity and movement. Fire is the associated element and its presence indicates passion, energy and being tested. The court cards of Wands introduce characters that can be recognized externally or internally. (more…)
