THE MAJOR
ARCANA
The 22 cards of the Major Arcana hold the keys to learning
life’s biggest lessons on the road to personal fulfilment and
spiritual enlightenment. This journey begins with The Fool (0)
and ends with The World (21).

The Major Arcana reflects the archetypal themes and karmic


cycles that influence your life and your soul’s journey. These
cards often signify the ‘what’, or overall theme of a Tarot
reading, whereas the 56 suit cards (numbered from Ace to 10,
plus 4 Court Cards per suit) support the ‘how’.
When Major Arcana cards appear in a reading, you are being
called to reflect on defining life lessons and themes.
