The Tarot Aces are the raw energy or essence of the suit they represent. As yet unformed, they are the potential of the element at its purest.
✫Everything begins with a thought or an idea (suit of Swords and the element Air).
✫Wands/Fire breathes life into it, they give it energy.
✫Cups/Water provides sentience and aesthetics.
✫Pentacles/Earth completes the formation by providing solidity to the original idea.
In a Tarot reading, the Aces can be seen as a gift, as a positive influence in life.
