Swords symbolise airy energy and are connected to ideas, logic & reason.
Swords’ cards point to situations involving ideas, information and communication. They encourage clear thinking and adopting a rational approach. They warn against information overload and negative states of mind.
Cups represent water energy – emotional, imaginative and intuitive.
Cups’ cards describe situations that are emotional or that depend on the use of imagination or intuition. They encourage trust in instincts, dreams and visions. They warn against emotional over-sensitivity and self-deception.
The Tarot Court Cards can describe people who were born under zodiac signs of one of the elements. They can be chosen to represent the person being read for depending on the element of their Zodiac Sign. If the reading was for an adult male born with Sun in Virgo, the King of Pentacles could be used to Signify him. If the reading was about a child born under the sign of Pisces, the Page of Cups could be used to represent them, and so on.
