They are often seen as the most important cards in a deck, and can represent big life changes.\u00a0<\/p><p>These\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.judithlaura.com\/spirituality\/tarot-card-meanings\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">tarot card meanings<\/a>\u00a0can vary depending on the position they are drawn in and other factors, but some of the most common interpretations include wisdom, growth, change, and destiny. And since they are considered the more important cards, you should learn them first.<\/p><p>If you arrange the Major Arcana set according to their numerical value, they come together to produce a meaningful tale. A key message from each of the Major Arcana is taught through this story, also called the Fool\u2019s journey.<\/p><p>For example, the major arcana are arranged numerically from 0 to 21. The first card represents the fool who begins the journey.\u00a0<\/p><p>The second one represents the wise man who learns how to be happy. This keeps going until you reach the last one.<\/p><p>The last one represents the High Priestess who embodies the divine feminine.<\/p><p>\u00a0This Fool\u2019s journey starts from the beginning (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.judithlaura.com\/spirituality\/the-fool\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Fool<\/a>) and ends with achievement (The World).<\/p><p>In addition to examining your general life path, you can use this journey to explore a specific aspect of your life.<\/p><p><strong>The Minor Arcana<\/strong><\/p><p>There are 56 cards in the Minor Arcana and they are divided into 4 suits (of 14 cards each):<\/p><p>These 4 suits are called Wands, Pentacles, Cups, and Swords. The Minor Arcana are often seen as less important than the Major Arcana in tarot readings, but this is not always the case.<\/p><p>The Minor Arcana can be just as insightful and helpful, especially when it comes to understanding personal relationships. Each of the suits has a ruling element, corresponding to specific areas in life.<\/p><p>It\u2019s important to consider these elements when working with the minor arcana because it ensures that an intuitive reading will happen (after a bit of practice of course).<\/p><p>To get a better understanding of each one, take a look at our tarot cards meaning list.

So it&#8217;s important to find one that resonates with you. But with so many options out there, it can be a daunting task deciding which one is right for you.<\/p><p>It&#8217;s no secret that most popular tarot deck is the Rider-Waite deck. It\u2019s based on traditional tarot symbolism, but features simplified artwork that makes it easy to read.<\/p><p>The Mary Hanson-Roberts tarot deck is another popular set that is easy to read and is used by beginners and experts alike. It\u2019s inspired by the Rider-Waite-Smith deck and is one of the easiest to learn. They feature beautiful artwork, a traditional layout, and are highly recommended for beginners.<\/p><p>Here are a few more tips to help you select the perfect deck:<\/p><ul><li><span style=\"background-color: transparent; letter-spacing: 0.3px; text-align: var(--text-align);\">Consider your personality and lifestyle. Some sets are more whimsical or light-hearted than others, while some might be more serious or intense. Choose a set that feels like a good fit for you personally. That will help you do the readings with ease and give you the essential skills you need to get going.<\/span><\/li><\/ul><div>\u00a0<\/div><ul><li><span style=\"background-color: transparent; letter-spacing: 0.3px; text-align: var(--text-align);\">Consider your interests. If you&#8217;re interested in mythology, then consider a set with mythological figures illustrated on them. If you&#8217;re into astrology, find a deck with illustrations based on zodiac signs. There&#8217;s no wrong answer &#8211; just find the deck that speaks to your interests.<\/span><\/li><\/ul><div>\u00a0<\/div><ul><li><span style=\"background-color: transparent; letter-spacing: 0.3px; text-align: var(--text-align);\">Finally, trust your intuition. After considering all of the above factors, take some time to simply browse through different tarot decks until one feels &#8220;right&#8221; for you &#8211; like an old friend waiting to be discovered.<\/span><\/li><\/ul><div>\u00a0<\/div><p>You don&#8217;t have to choose the popular deck just because others are doing it.\u00a0<\/p><p>Once you&#8217;ve chosen either a traditional deck or a newer one, take some time to study the card meanings.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1f1c2d7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"1f1c2d7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Simple Tarot Spreads for Beginners<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-67613ba elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"67613ba\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>When you&#8217;re starting out in something new, it&#8217;s important to build a strong foundation of knowledge so that you can progress steadily and confidently.<\/p><p>You can accomplish this by learning basic tarot spreads first.<\/p><p>If you try to dive into more complex material before you have a good grasp of the basics, you&#8217;ll likely find yourself feeling overwhelmed and frustrated.\u00a0<\/p><p>In the beginning, leave that to the more experienced readers that already understand much of the divinatory meanings of the cards.<\/p><p>But if you take things one step at a time, focusing on mastering each individual card and classic spread before moving on to the next, then learning to read the cards will be much easier and more enjoyable for you.<\/p><p>The spreads and layout of cards is designed to provide guidance and clarity during readings.\u00a0<\/p><p>There are many different types of layout, each with its own unique purpose. Some of them are meant for general readings, while others are specifically designed for more specific purposes, such as relationship or career readings.<\/p><p>An easy tarot spread for beginners is the three-card layout. It\u2019s simple but effective, and can be used for general readings or for specific questions.\u00a0<\/p><p>The first card represents the past, the second one represents the present, and the third one represents the future.<\/p><p>Without question, the three-card spread is one of the fastest to learn and retain.\u00a0<span style=\"letter-spacing: 0.3px; text-align: var(--text-align);\">Another popular spread is called the Celtic Cross Spread.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"letter-spacing: 0.3px; text-align: var(--text-align);\">It covers ten positions around the card shape and can be used for general readings or specific questions alike.<\/span><\/p><p>With patience and practice, these basic layouts will become second nature to you.
