II016: The Tarot of the Four Elements

The Tarot of the Four Elements

II016

 In Tarot, the four elements - Earth, Air, Fire, and Water - hold significant meanings and symbolism. These elements are represented in the Minor Arcana cards, and understanding their meanings can deepen your understanding of reading and interpreting the cards. Let’s explore each element:

1. Wands - Fire: Action, inspiration, drive, willpower, passion, ambition.
2. Cups - Water: Emotions, intuition, feelings, relationships.
3. Swords - Air: Logic, ideas, intellect, communication.
4. Pentacles - Earth: Nature, physicality, material world, stability.

Additionally, how these elements interact also influences how we read Tarot. Rules about how elements impact each other are called elemental dignities. For example, two cards both belonging to the Fire or Wands element may enhance each other’s strength, but they can also be challenging to control. I hope this information is helpful!
