The Meanings of these Tarot Cards

Past

What has already occurred; the past.

Nine of Wands from the Vivid Waite Smith Tarot Deck

Card Meaning When Reversed

Obstacles, adversity, disasters.

S. L. MacGregor Mathers's Divinatory Meanings

Obstacles, Crosses, Delay, Displeasure.

Card Description

A man leans upon his staff with an expectant look, as if awaiting an enemy. His build indicates that he may prove a formidable opponent. Behind are eight other staves—upright, in orderly arrangement, like a fence.

Present

What is occurring now; the present.

The Lovers from the Vivid Waite Smith Tarot Deck

Card Meaning When Reversed

Failure, foolish designs, prevented marriage, and opposition of all kinds.

S. L. MacGregor Mathers's Divinatory Meanings

Unwise Plans, Failure when put to the test.

Card Description

The sun shines above, and beneath is a great winged figure with arms extended, pouring down mystical influences. In the foreground are two human figures, male and female. They are naked before each other, like Adam and Eve when they first occupied Paradise. Behind the man is the Tree of Life, bearing twelve fruits. The Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil is behind the woman, with the serpent wrapped around it. The figures suggest youth, virginity, innocence, and love before it is contaminated by gross material desire. This is the card of human love; part of the Way, the Truth and the Life. In a very high sense, the card is a depiction of the Covenant and the Sabbath.

Future

What has not yet occurred; the future.

The Hanged Man from the Vivid Waite Smith Tarot Deck

Card Meaning When Upright

Wisdom, prudence, discernment, trials, sacrifice, intuition, divination, prophecy.

S. L. MacGregor Mathers's Divinatory Meanings

Self-sacrifice, Sacrifice, Devotion, Bound

Card Description

The figure of a man hangs head down from a gallows, to which he is attached by a rope around one of his ankles. His arms are bound behind him, and one leg is crossed over the other. The gallows from which he hangs forms a Tau cross, while the figure—from the position of the legs--forms a cross. There is a halo around the head of the apparent martyr. It should be noted (1) that the tree of sacrifice is living wood, with leaves on it; (2) that the face expresses deep entrancement, not suffering; (3) that the figure, as a whole, suggests life in suspension, not death.
