The Meanings of these Tarot Cards

This Covers You

This card gives the influence which is affecting the person or matter of inquiry generally, the atmosphere of it in which the other currents work.

Nine of Cups from the Vivid Waite Smith Tarot Deck

Card Meaning When Upright

Goodwill, contentment, physical well-being; also victory, success, advantage; satisfaction for the Querent.

A. E. Waite's Secondary Meanings

Of good augury for military men.

Card Description

A stout man has feasted to his heart's content. An abundant supply of wine is behind him, as if to show that the future is also assured. The picture offers the material side of assurance only: it does not reflect the spiritual.

This Crosses You

It shows the nature of the obstacles in the matter. If it is a favourable card, the opposing forces will not be serious, or it may indicate that something good in itself will not be productive of good in the particular connexion.

Six of Swords from the Vivid Waite Smith Tarot Deck

Card Meaning When Upright

Journey by water, route, travel, messenger, assistance.

A. E. Waite's Secondary Meanings

The voyage will be pleasant.

Card Description

A ferryman carries passengers in his raft to the far shore. The course is smooth, and the freight is light; the work is not beyond his strength.

This Crowns You

It represents (a) the Querent's aim or ideal in the matter; (b) the best that can be achieved under the circumstances, but that which has not yet been made actual.

Seven of Swords from the Vivid Waite Smith Tarot Deck

Card Meaning When Upright

Plan, attempt, wish, hope, confidence; also arguments, a plan that may fail, annoyance.

A. E. Waite's Secondary Meanings

Dark girl; a good card; it promises a country life after a competence has been secured.

Card Description

A man quickly carries away five swords. Two others remain stuck in the ground. A camp is close at hand.

This is Beneath You

It shows the foundation or basis of the matter, that which has already passed into actuality and which the Significator has made his own.

The Star from the Vivid Waite Smith Tarot Deck

Card Meaning When Reversed

Arrogance, haughtiness, impotence.

A. E. Waite's Secondary Meanings (When Upright)

The Star, Dog-Star, or Sirius, also called fantastically the Star of the Magi. Grouped about it are seven minor luminaries, and beneath it is a naked female figure, with her left knee upon the earth and her right foot upon the water. She is in the act of pouring fluids from two vessels. A bird is perched on a tree near her; for this a butterfly on a rose has been substituted in some later cards. So also the Star has been called that of Hope. This is one of the cards which Court de Gebelin describes as wholly Egyptian-that is to say, in his own reverie.

Card Description

A large, radiant star of eight points, surrounded by seven lesser stars—also of eight points. The female figure in the foreground is entirely naked. Her left knee is on the land and her right foot on the water. She pours the Water of Life from two great pitchers, irrigating sea and land. Behind her is rising ground, and on the right a shrub on which a bird perches. The figure expresses eternal youth and beauty. The star is l'etoile flamboyante, a symbol of Freemasonry. The figure communicates to the earth around her the substance of the heavens and the elements.

This is Behind You

It gives the influence that is just passed, or is now passing away.

Three of Wands from the Vivid Waite Smith Tarot Deck

Card Meaning When Reversed

The end of troubles; adversity, toil and disappointment will pause or stop.

A. E. Waite's Secondary Meanings (When Upright)

A very good card; collaboration will favour enterprise.

Card Description

A calm, stately figure looks from a cliff's edge at ships passing over the sea. His back is turned. Three staves are planted in the ground, and he leans slightly on one of them.

This is Before You

It shows the influence that is coming into action and will operate in the near future.

King of Pentacles from the Vivid Waite Smith Tarot Deck

Card Meaning When Reversed

Vice, weakness, ugliness, perversity, corruption, peril.

A. E. Waite's Secondary Meanings

An old and vicious man.

Card Description

The face is rather grim, suggesting courage, but is also somewhat lethargic. The bull's head should be noted as a recurrent symbol on the throne.

Your Self

Signifies the person or thing about which the question has been asked, and shows its position or attitude in the circumstances.

Five of Pentacles from the Vivid Waite Smith Tarot Deck

Card Meaning When Upright

Material trouble; destitution.

A. E. Waite's Secondary Meanings

Conquest of fortune by reason.

Card Description

Two beggars in a snowstorm pass a lit stained-glass window.

Your House

Your environment and the tendencies at work therein which have an effect on the matter €”for instance, your position in life, the influence of immediate friends, and so forth.

The Heirophant from the Vivid Waite Smith Tarot Deck

Card Meaning When Reversed

Fellowship, good understanding, consensus, excessive kindness, weakness.

A. E. Waite's Secondary Meanings (When Upright)

The High Priest or Hierophant, called also Spiritual Father, and more commonly and obviously the Pope. It seems even to have been named the Abbot, and then its correspondence, the High Priestess, was the Abbess or Mother of the Convent. Both are arbitrary names. The insignia of the figures are papal, and in such case the High Priestess is and can be only the Church, to whom Pope and priests are married by the spiritual rite of ordination. I think, however, that in its primitive form this card did not represent the Roman Pontiff.

Card Description

He wears the triple crown and is seated between two pillars, but not those of the Temple guarded by the High Priestess. In his left hand he holds a scepter ending with the triple cross. With his right hand he gives the well-known ecclesiastical sign of esotericism, distinguishing between the surface and concealed parts of doctrine. At his feet are the crossed keys, and two priestly ministers in albs (priestly robes) kneel before him. He is the ruling power of external religion, as the High Priestess is the prevailing force of the esoteric power.

Your Hopes and Fears

Four of Wands from the Vivid Waite Smith Tarot Deck

Card Meaning When Reversed

Prosperity, growth, cheerfulness, beauty, embellishment.

A. E. Waite's Secondary Meanings

A married woman will have beautiful children.

Card Description

From four staves planted in the foreground, a great garland hangs. Two female figures hold up bouquets. To one side is a bridge over a moat, leading to an old mansion.

The Final Result

The culmination which is brought about by the influences shewn by the other cards that have been turned up in the divination.

Ten of Wands from the Vivid Waite Smith Tarot Deck

Card Meaning When Upright

Oppression, especially that of fortune, gain, or any kind of success. Success will be mocked if the Nine of Swords follows. If it is a question of a lawsuit, loss is certain.

A. E. Waite's Secondary Meanings

Difficulties and contradictions, if near a good card.

Card Description

A man carries ten staves, burdened down by their weight. It represents the burden of material wealth. It may also represent false-seeming, disguise, corruption, as if the place the man approaches will suffer beatings from the rods he carries.
