MINOR ARCANA - SUITS | SUIT | ELEMENT | ENERGIES | WANDS | Fire | Energies of action, passion, drive, will, aggression and spirit. I also see Wands as cards of communication or having to do with communication issues. | PENTACLES | Earth | Energies of material, the physical, form and the tangible. I attribute to Pentacles issues of finance and business, and issues involving material possessions. In addition, Pentacles issues may or may not encompass questions revolving around career choices. | SWORDS | Air | Energies of intellect, thought, the rational, and mental powers. I usually see the Swords as the cards of conflict within the deck, for some reason, as well as the cards of challenge. | CUPS | Water | Energies of feelings, intuition and emotion. Additionally, Cups issues normally revolve around home and hearth, family, loved ones, relationships. | Note: The issue of Wands-Fire/Swords-Air is usually debatable, depending on the reader and the deck of choice. In this list, we have assumed the associations of Wands with Fire and Swords with Air. You are free to make your own choices if we do not share the same opinion. |
