Angel Tarot Card Meanings~ Minor Arcana

  Queen of Air  The Queen of Air is often referred to as the "fung shui card" of tarot, as it signifies a life free of clutter or emotional distractions (otherwise known as drama). This card is of wisdom born of many life experiences--some of them uplifting and some of them quite challenging. There's an inner peace that has been earned.   We've come to know how to handle just about any situation that comes with the card and the past experiences it represents.  This card can also represent divorced individuals as as people who have a very dry sense of humor. Symbolism  A beautiful and wise Queen exhibits intense focus upon the task at hand. She conjures up a magical unicorn, as her intentions are pure and crystal clear.  Our Queen is dressed in tanzanite jewels. Tanzanite has many meanings that are reflective of this card. it connects us to our spirituality and is said to enhance clairvoyance. Tanzanite is also known for it's ability to promote communic...

Knight of Air The Knight of Air is probably the fastest-moving energy in tarot. Our lives may seem to be moving very slowly (or even not moving at all) but when this Knight shows up, it's like stepping into a whirlwind. While all the Knights are very active cards that speak of taking action, this particular Knight thinks his way through to successful solutions. This isn't the time for making emotional choices. Decisions must be made via the intellect. It may be difficult to think through our choices before acting and yet it's important to ponder our alternatives and fully consider what our desired outcome is before we get to far down the road.  Symbolism  The Knight and his compassion are moving very swiftly. The Knight has to hold on tight encase he's thrown off the unicorn. It's important we see to all the important details, so that we wont be "thrown" off our course.  The unicorn's horn is quite magical and is even lit up, which indicates the spark...

 Page of Air Pages are often messages or messengers and the Page of Air is no different. Information comes to us that can be very useful or it may be informing us of temporary delays or changes to our plans. The message we receive may not be delivered with the softer energy we'd prefer; however, that doesn't mean it's not very useful information to have. Frankly, it's often quite brilliant! The thing to remember about this card is to separate the message from the messenger.   The Page of Air can also refer to legal documents, constructive criticism or even just plain gossip. Symbolism  Our beautiful Page is ready for the task at hand, with many friends as backup. The card asks us to be prepared to act the information we receive.  She carries a sword, which symbolizes truth and justice.; however, it's important to note that the sword is double-edged.  The truth can be cutting if not delivered in a kind way.  The ball of golden light shows that this Pa...

  Ten of Air  In traditional tarot, this is considered a very undesirable card. With the imagery that was historically portrayed, that's no surprise. However, much like many of the Air suit cards, we feel that this is a misinterpretation. The Ten of Air mostly definitely represents an ending. It's just that more often than not, it's an ending that has been anticipated and quite possibly welcomed. It's a weight off our shoulders. We may be sad about the ending but at least it's finally over and we can move on. When we're no longer hanging onto, "what has been", we can begin to create a beautiful new life of "what will be".  This card can indicate someone who's recovering from an addiction--the emphasis being in recovery. One other thing, though, about the Ten of Air card, is that it often comes with a bit of drama tied to it. So while we may be at peace with the ending, others may have their own energy around the change. Symbolism  Eight ...

  Nine of Air Have you ever heard of a self-fulfilling prophecy? It's a situation where people focus so much on their fears that they eventually manifest it into reality. The Nine of Air card is sent by our angels when we're in the process of manifesting an unhappy outcome that's simply not necessary. We should think of this card as a kind and loving note from Heaven to change the way we're thinking. We need to find a way to concentrate on the results we're hoping for rather than worrying that a bad outcome is on it's way.   This card can also indicate sleeplessness or insomnia, unhappy dreams or illness caused by stress.  Symbolism  The first thing we notice about this card is all the unicorns are asleep except one. Eight unicorns are sleeping soundly (8 being the number of abundance and positive energy), while the one remaining unicorn appears to remain on watch.   Being on watch is a practice that allows others to rest, while one member of the group...

Eight of Air  The Eight of Air is a card that points out our lack of self confidence but Heaven wishes to break through our unhealthy illusions. We have a sense that we're trapped or not on control of our own lives but that isn't true. There's always a way to free ourselves of situations that we're no happy about but we must believe in ourselves. We must see the truth of our situation and take action.  This card also indicate confusion or feeling helpless. Symbolism  A single unicorn has broken free from a herd that's very clustered together. By stepping ahead, the single unicorn has shown confidence in itself. It doesn't need to rely on the others or to be part of the pack "mentality"in order to be successful.  The seven unicorns appear to be standing still, with their feet in the water, near the shore. Water is a symbol of emotion and since this card is one where fears are getting the best of us, the unicorns are standing in their fear.  The single ...

  Seven of Air  The Seven of Air reveals itself to us as a message of kindness from Heaven. Our angels want us to know, that our current path is probably not the one that we're meant to be on. We may be unaware of our situation or oblivious to the actions of others. This card has a traditional meaning that encompasses something being taken away from us but the most common loss is our freedom. What we don't realize is that, the individual that is taking away our independence is ourselves. Our lack of focus on our own needs and life purpose creates a sense of limbo where we don't get where we want to go.  This card can also signify that our plans themselves are fine but the timing of them needs an adjustment. Symbolism  Five unicorns spin on a merry-go-round. They ride without any ability to determine their destination.  Five is the number of change. The only way to break the cycle of the merry-go-round is to change our circumstances.   The merry-go-rou...

 Six of Air  Ah, finally! We can see the end of challenging times and now we have the chance to move on. The Six of Air represents "light at the end of the tunnel". The stress in our shoulders falls away and what we see before us is the light of a brand-new day. Conflicts gets resolved and those who suffer from depression find relief.   This card can mean taking a trip (especially one that requires traveling by or over water). It can also represent the beginning of a metaphorical journey in our lives. Symbolism  A unicorn is sailing out of troubled times on it's way to sunnier skies. It has made course corrections and proper choices in order to leave stagnancy behind.  The ship is Novus , which is Latin for "new"; new opportunities, new dreams, new life.  The five unicorns from the Five of Air are in the background, showing that our sailing unicorn has left that energy behind.  Angel Number  The angel number for this card is 56. The energy o...

  Five of Air  Try as we might, we don't always make the right choices. However, since everything happens for a reason, we will surely learn many things that will help us in similar situations in the future. The Five of Air card does not show up in a reading to chastise us. Instead, it presents itself to give us a heads-up that we may be going in a direction that won't ultimately make us happy. Making a course correction now, will save us a great deal of trouble later.  The card also lets us know that there may be others around us, who have different motives than we do. Their reasons for what they're doing may or may not be questionable; they're just not in the line with ours. Communication can create an environment where everyone's integrity can be confirmed.  Symbolism  Five unicorns stand around in a group, yet nothing appears to be getting done. There doesn't seem to be any communication going on. The lack of movement indicates that the unicorns aren't ...

  Four of Air  The previous few cards have brought with them considerable challenges. Therefore, the Four of Air asks us to take a rest. We may be mentally, physically or emotionally exhausted and some time away from the challenges of daily life would be welcome.  This card can also suggest we need more time before reaching any major life decisions. A better solution may reveal itself if we simply wait a bit longer.   This is often a card that suggests meditation. It may be for our health or it could be that we've intellectualized to a point that mental exercise will no longer help us. The answer will come from going within. Symbolism  Four unicorns have assembled as a group. The number 4 is one of angelic assistance but it's also one of balance. The presence of the unicorns indicates that our life needs more balance and that's why some rest would benefit us.   The sleeping unicorn is taking time to rejuvenate and get it's strength back.  Th...

  Three of Air  Tarot mirrors our experiences in life and that includes the moments that fill us with sadness. The Three of Air card shows us that, there's something in our life that needs healed.  We may have suffered loss or perhaps we're still haunted by pain from the past.  The two keys to recovering from our sorrow are time  and forgiveness. Some experiences take time to heal from and it's best if we allow  ourselves this time. Forgiveness for ourselves or others, is also an important step to finding happiness again. Symbolism  Two unicorns console their foal, which symbolizes that it's not only okay but probably preferable, to seek our our friends or family members to help us heal from our sadness.  The small purple flowers are called "forget-me-nots", which are known for healing trauma and allowing us to let go of guilt.  We've seen this tree trunk before in the Ace of Air card; however, with the Three of Air we see, there has been a ...

  Two of Air  The Two of Air is largely a stalemate. We find ourselves unable to choose, so we don't move forward at all. Usually this card reflects as inner conflict, where we're at odds with ourselves. part of this dilemma may be just that we don't want to face the issues at hand. The decision may simply be to difficult or to painful to make, so we push it to the bottom of our to-do list or pretend the problem isn't there, in hopes it will resolve itself. The card asks us to make a choice--to move forward. We must release ourselves from the trap of avoidance and only we  have the key to set us free.  This card can also indicate that we're in a war with wills with someone else. If that's the case, the card asks us to find a compromise or seek meditation with a third party.  Symbolism  Two unicorns cross horns, indicating their inability to come to a choice or compromise.  The unicorns aren't looking at one each other but merely downward, showing that...

  Ace of Air The Ace of Air can be challenging, as many people often misunderstand this card. Some believe that it's a sign of being asked to give up on important endeavors.  When we run int o obstacles while attempting to manifest our plans, we may think , Oh well, I guess I'm just not supposed to move forward and often that may be true but not with the Ace of Air. There may be bumps along the road with this card but those minor setbacks  should be looked upon as Heaven helping us. Perhaps our angels are stalling us until the perfect timing presents itself. They may be using challenges to better prepare us for what's to come or sending us the message that we need to make some minor course corrections but  we are not  to give up! The Ace of Air generally turns our well in time!  This card can also be a clue that we're about to have an inspired new idea or revelation that gives us a better understanding of our situation. Symbolism  Unicorns are creat...

  King of Water  The King of Water asks us to open our hearts and show compassion to those around us. We're also asked to open our minds to new ideas and creative ways of thinking. We may be called upon to provide our time or money to charitable organizations.  When it comes to relationships with people, the King represents those we can fully trust. His heart is golden and he operates with the highest degree of integrity.  Symbolism  The merman King wears a large, flowing purple cape. Purple is the color of the crown chakra and indicates that he's a person of deep inner knowledge and high morals.  The passion of the angelfish shows that the King hasn't stopped evolving emotionally or spiritually and that he feels very strongly about the causes he supports and the people in his life.   The dolphin represents community-- the King is quite often a leader among the people he represents. Angel Number  The King of Water is a ngel number 50. The ...

  Queen of Water  The Queen of Water is a deeply emotional card, asking us to care for others but to also see that we need to nurture ourselves just as much. Feelings run deep when this card is drawn and there's likely to be something very significant going on in our relationships (whether romantic or platonic).   This is also a card of profound psychic experiences. We're asked to listen to our guidance, feelings and intuition very closely. Symbolism  A beautiful mer-angel floats along the top of the water. She's the only character in the suit of mer-people with wings. This symbolizes her angelic ability to care for others.  While the mer-angel is a deeply feeling person, her past experiences with love and relationships make her able to " rise above " and see the truth of a situation without getting carried away by it.  Whales are associated with psychic gifts and the ability to delve deeply into emotional connections. They're also powerful symbols fo...

  Knight of Water  While the Page of Water heralds our first indicator of powerful new emotional experience, the Knight of Water shows that we've been completely swept off our feet! This card refers to falling in love, offers of marriage or any romantic experience that cause us swoon. In fact we may be thrown quite off balance by the entire situation and forget to remain grounded . This card can also herald an invitation to a social event of some kind. Symbolism  A handsome merman Knight comes galloping into our lives. He's making some pretty big waves as he arrives.  His companion is a dolphin, indicating that he's here to bring a note of playfulness.  He and the dolphin jump from the water, showing our Knight's ability to move from one emotional situation to another.  The Knight wears a winged helmet, signifying that he can move very quickly into our lives.  Unlike the Page of Water, the image in this card shows the cup completely submerged, indicati...

  Page of Water  It's always exciting when someone new comes into our lives, especially when the nature of the relationship is romantic. It can be just as wonderful when the relationship moves to the next level. Am example of that might be when two people who have been dating for awhile decide to get engaged. These are the types of moments that the Page of Water brings us. Remember that the Pages of tarot are often messengers, so this card can also indicate a love letter or any type of communication of emotion.  The woman in the Water suit are very intuitive, so this Page, may also indicate new psychic experiences or an increase in our natural gifts.  Symbolism  A beautiful mermaid floats above very tumultuous waters. Since water represents our feelings, clearly something significant has entered her emotional life.  Our mermaid is surrounded by whales, which symbolize the ability to go within and understand ourselves. They also represent psychic abilities. ...

  Ten of Water The Ten of Water is another card of good fortune. It really does represent "having it all",. We've found great contentment in our lives: our relationships are positive and affirming, as well we have healthy and strong connections with our children. There's harmony with our friends and extended family, our emotional needs are fulfilled and we have what we need financially to be happy.  This card can also refer to taking care of family members or allowing others to take care of us.    Symbolism  Many of the elements of the previous cards in the suit of Water have finally come together.  The happy couple from the Two of Water continues to offer their cups (emotional openness) to one another.  The children of the Six of Water indicates that they've now created a very happy family.  The yellow angelfish show that the family is growing and evolving spiritually as a group, with the love and protection of the angels around them.  ...

Nine of Water   Nine of Water is one of those cards in tarot with a nickname: It's the "wishes come true" card. This is one of the most joyful cards in the deck and lets us know that our dreams are coming to fruition and that we have much to be joyful for and grateful about. If this card jumps from the deck while we're shuffling, it's a good time to make a wish.   This card can also indicate enjoying great luxury and the beautiful things in life. Symbolism  The mermaid in the image is very happy; she's heard that her wishes will be coming true!  The mermaid has her head above water, so she can't see the beautiful things under water. Even though she hasn't yet witnessed her good fortune, she has faith that it will come to pass!  There are nine cups under water, filled to the brim with jewels. However, this doesn't restrict itself to desires of financial abundance. It can represent wishes related to career, love, health or whatever we're hoping f...

  Eight of Water There are many cards in tarot that indicate that change is becoming. However, the Eight of Water card indicates that the choice in another direction is fully of our own. We feel restless and that which fascinated us us in the past no longer entices us. Instead,  we yearn for something more meaningful  and wish to have a life that rewards us with emotional and spiritual satisfaction.   Of course, even the decisions we make on our own can be challenging or even bring about great sadness but that doesn't stop us from doing what is necessary in order to be who we know we're meant to be deep down. Symbolism  A merman has turned his back on the cups in the foreground. They used to mean something to him and at one time brought him joy but now their allure is gone.  As he swims away, he heads toward the light, which represents the spiritual evolution and awakening that comes with following our destiny.  The majority of the cups are in th...

  Seven of Water  The Seven of Water is a card indecision and the need to make choices. When we find ourselves unable to choose between various or contradictory options, we can fall into inaction. Our dreams don't move forward and our lives feel stalled. Sometimes finding the right action to take lies in doing  research; other times, we're merely procrastinating. This card asks us to do whatever is necessary to move forward.   The Seven of Water card is also a possible indicator of addiction, so if the question we're asking has to do with dependency or unhealthy behaviors, drawing this card would lead us to believe that there's cause for concern. Symbolism  Seven cups lie at the bottom of the ocean and each one is filled with a colorful light of one of the chakras. The answer to our question lies in which color our eyes are drawn to . From left to right on the image of the card the colors are:  ~Dark Blue: The third-eye chakra speaks to our intuitive...

Six of Water The past has significant  influence over our present and even the future. The Six of Water card reminds us to honor that past by expressing gratitude for our beautiful memories and to be forgiving regarding challenging  times. This card may indicate that someone from our past is going to return to our lives. It may be someone whom we grew up with or perhaps someone we knew from our early years as an adult. This card has a watery energy , so this person from our past may be someone we had a romantic history with or may be someone who was once a friend but will become something more intimate in the future. This card can also ask us to review how we see the past. Are we making it more dramatic that it was? More lovely than the reality actually was ?  The Six of Water often has to do with children. It's an indicator of pregnancy, a matter involving our current children or even a sign that the person who drew the card should or does work with children professional...

 Five of Water We cant always see what would be best for us, It is therefore natural that things don't always turn out in the way we'd envisioned they would . However, the Universe knows what's best for us even if we don't see the path that is laid out for us. The Five of Water reminds us that, what's important during these times is to refocus our minds and hearts and believe that our situation will serve us positively in the long run. Focusing on the past or things that went "wrong"' only keeps us from moving forward in the direction of eventual happiness.  Symbolism  Three broken cups lie in the darkness. It's almost difficult to see them, which prompts the question"are those even meant to be seen anymore "?  The three broken cups are nearly buried at the bottom of the ocean sand. The message here is "to bury the past".   Two of the cups are sitting in the light, upright and ready to be enjoyed. This is where our focus should ...

 Four of Water The Four of Water is a friendly reminder from Heaven that we may be missing an important message. Sometimes when we're very focused on the day-to-day, we don't notice that others (or our angels) are offering us a lovely opportunity. We need to stand back from the situation, look around and ask ourselves or our angels, "what beautiful possibility might be around the next corner"?  We may be aware of something good that came our way but perhaps we dismissed it as not being of value or not what we wanted at the time. The Four of Water would ask us to reconsider. Perhaps the option we said no , is better than we think or maybe taking full advantage of the opportunity will lead us to what we want.    Symbolism  A mermaid is so focused on the three of cups in front of her that she doesn't notice anything else that's going on around her.   The three cups that have caught her attention are in the back of the image (the past) and are also in the...

  Three of Water Now we get to celebrate! The Three of Water is famous for pointing out a reason to proclaim our happiness over a joyous event. Often, this card heralds the announcement of an engagement, a wedding, the birth of a child a graduation or the promotion of someone to a new job.  Or perhaps we don't need a reason to kick up our heels. This card may be telling us that we need to enjoy life a little more and find a reason to have a party. We might enchant our inner child with a day at an amusement park--or whatever makes our hearts sing--and embrace the moment and have fun! Symbolism  Three happy dolphins swim about in the ocean. Dolphins have very strong connections to those in groups. For this reason, they represent happy communities.   Three cups full of water sit together in the oceans floor . These cups represent the contents of our emotional, inner lives. By placing the cups together, the dolphins have shown their desire to have shared experience...

  Two  of Water This is the card of falling in love. In the Ace of Water, we meet someone but the Two of Water shows that the relationship has grown. Hearts have become intertwined and the commitments between those involved have grown deeper. This card can also represent very close friends who've made a connection that will last their entire lives.  This is also a card of forgiveness. Disputes between lovers or friends fade away. If we're involved in a relationship, either romantic or platonic, that has been strained or troubled, we have to remember not to give up. The situation can be resolved in a positive and mutually beneficial way.  Symbolism  A mermaid and merman have come together at the bottom of the ocean. They're not afraid to explore the depths of their emotions together.   Dolphins swim around the couple, representing playfulness, community and harmony--qualities that any relationship benefits from.   The mermaid and merman have ...

  Ace of Water  The Ace of Water is a wonderful card that indicates heart warming emotions and honest connections with others. Usually it heralds a beautiful new romance, but it can signify a very close and intimate (but platonic) friendship as well. This card also represents a time of deepening spiritual and psychic experiences.   The Aces always speak of something new within their suit. In this case, that would be beginnings that relate to emotion, family and intuition. This card can also refer to a new home.   Symbolism  A handsome young merman swims down to reach for a cup. It's just slightly beyond his reach, but soon the cup will be his.   A cup is a vessel for water the element for this suit, as well as the universal sign for emotions.  The tip of the merman's tail is just over the top of the water line. He's almost completely committed to the emotional experience that will soon present itself but there's a small part of him that's unsure....

  King of Fire It's time to take charge! This King of Fire wants us to realize that we have incredible leadership skills. There are many who would benefit from our vision and ability to focus and get the job done effectively but also with a bit of flair. It's time to really focus on the issues that matter and dismiss those that are just distractions. Talented and friendly people can also show up to help, so we need to graciously accept their assistance! Symbolism  Our King wears a headdress of peacock feathers-- symbols of royalty, integrity and immortality. Peacock feathers are also associated with Quan-Yin, who's known for her loving-kindness and her desire to help others.   The dragon that we've watched grow up throughout this suit is now fully grown and represents a powerful ally and friend to our King.  The dragon's feathers have matured to be mostly purple and violet, which is associated with the crown chakra. There is a oneness with spirit and the ability...

  Queen of Fire What are we waiting for? There's nothing we can't accomplish! This is a card of incredible creativity and passion just waiting to be ignited. The Queen of Fire wants us to understand our unlimited inner strength and inexhaustible power. we mustn't be afraid to present ourselves to the world with beauty and grace. This card also indicates the ability to balance many aspects of life-- especially career and family issues.   Symbolism  A beautiful, fiery Queen sits upon a throne of emeralds, which are jewels of the heart. It indicates an open heart chakra, as well as the ability to awaken the spirituality of ourselves and others.  A bracelet adorns the Queen's wrist and it is also made of emeralds. Our ability to glide through any situation is assured as long as our movements are determined by our hearts.   The Queen has a wand of fire which she creates and she only chooses endeavors that she's very passionate about.   The Queen's fir...

  Knight of Fire  There are times in our lives when situations we hadn't anticipated require us to move quickly!. It doesn't have to be a challenge that worries us; it might simply be something wonderful to consider--like having multiple jobs offers but a short period of time to decide. When we see a Knight of Fire,  We wouldn't want to make a rash decision but we're probably going to have to come to a conclusion pretty quickly. Thinking is important but our feelings will probably tell us more about what we want to do. We need to consider all our options in great detail and then off we'll go! Symbolism  A handsome Knight gallops into our field of view. It's easy to imagine him asking; "How may I help you?"  His white horse tells us that we can expect to be very successful in our endeavor. Our intentions are honorable and we have nothing to fear.   Our Knight carries with him a wand rather than a sword. The solution to our challenges comes from passion ...

  Page of Fire The Page of Fire is a very exciting card to choose New opportunities present themselves to us and we may get some information about something wonderful that's coming into our lives. This is a highly creative card where our ability to "think outside the box" is extremely valuable. We're asked to follow our passions and let them guide us to our life work. Without question, we're asked to use our own brand of magic to manifest our happiness. This card can also mean a promotion, career change or any new and promising development in our professional lives.  Symbolism  A beautiful young woman is in the process of manifesting what she desires. We can call it magic or we can call it the passion of following our dreams. Either way, it's her belief in herself that paves the way to fulfillment.   The young woman's friend is a magical dragon with gemstones in it's wings. Gemstones are precious and glitter with many colors of light, much like the un...

  Ten of Fire  Work can be exhausting and feel like a chore. The Ten of Fire represents times in our lives when we're working entirely too much without leaving any space for fun and play. Often this card shows up when people are working multiple jobs or when single parents are dealing with the challenge of working and balancing caring for their children when they get home. We may find ourselves so intensely involved in our current endeavors that we don't even realize how rundown we're becoming.  This card can also indicate health problems that are created by over-working. We can take a Ten of Fire as a possible message to reduce our workload, take time off or delegate tasks to others when possible.  Symbolism  The dragon carries a heavy burden and does so alone. The woman from the Nine of Fire card is no longer there to assist.   The pot of Gold from the Nine of Fire is still intact but now there are ten wands in it, not only making it heavier but gi...
