Tarot Quick Tip- Minor Arcana
Everyone has a different style of reading but this is the way I learned to read quickly and with confidence (very good tip if you’re thinking of “going pro”)
If you have a deck with suits (like RW), an easy way to quick read is to jump right into what each suit means.
Cheat sheet to the minor arcana:
PENTACLE- the physical (work, ambition, things we put effort towards)
CUPS- emotional relationships (the emotional ties we have to this world like family and friends. Does not necessarily mean the cups mean the actual people, they can mean how you handle those relationships or even represent a fear that you won’t find a certain relationship)
WANDS - emotional (personal emotions, different from cups because this deals more with the emotions you feel as a person which may or may not have anything to do with anyone).
SWORDS- force (good or bad. Force is good if you have to fight hard for a goal, but it can also be a suit of oppression. Force used against you and used by you. Using force can also be negative)
After memorizing the different suit meanings, you can simply jump right into the symbols that speak to you (this method is great if you are highly if you are an intuitive thinker) This way of learning by suit helped me personally read my symbols more efficiently.
Remember the important part is that it makes sense to you and helps you read easier. If you find a different style works better for you, or you wish to work with different definitions, that can also work just fine.
