The Meanings of these Tarot Cards

Past

What has already occurred; the past.

Ten of Swords from the Vivid Waite Smith Tarot Deck

Card Meaning When Upright

Violence or backstabbing, as shown by the design; also pain, affliction, tears, sadness, desolation. It is not specifically a card of violent death.

A. E. Waite's Secondary Meanings

Followed by Ace and King, imprisonment; for girl or wife, treason on the part of friends.

Card Description

A figure lies on the ground, pierced by the swords of the card.

Present

What is occurring now; the present.

Seven of Pentacles from the Vivid Waite Smith Tarot Deck

Card Meaning When Reversed

Cause for anxiety regarding money someone wants to borrow.

A. E. Waite's Secondary Meanings

Impatience, apprehension, suspicion.

Card Description

A young man leans on his staff, and looks intently at seven pentacles attached to a plant on his right. It looks as if these were his treasures, and as if his heart were there.

Future

What has not yet occurred; the future.

The Tower from the Vivid Waite Smith Tarot Deck

Card Meaning When Upright

Misery, distress, extreme poverty, adversity, disasters, disgrace, deception, ruin. It is a card in particular of unforeseen catastrophe.

A. E. Waite's Secondary Meanings

The Tower struck by Lightning. Its alternative titles are: Castle of Plutus, God's House and the Tower of Babel. In the last case, the figures falling therefrom are held to be Nimrod and his minister. It is assuredly a card of confusion, and the design corresponds, broadly speaking, to any of the designations except Maison Dieu, unless we are to understand that the House of God has been abandoned and the veil of the temple rent. It is a little surprising that the device has not so far been allocated to the destruction Of Solomon's Temple, when the lightning would symbolize the fire and sword with which that edifice was visited by the King of the Chaldees.

Card Description

A Tower struck by Lightning. It is definitely a card of confusion, and the design can correspond to any well-known catastrophe. It may also depict the House of God, abandoned, and the Veil of the Temple, rent.
