Major Arcana

  • 0 - The Fool - Yorick Proudhollow

    The Fool is the classic free spirit, open-hearted lover of life, and no one better embraces that spirit of adventure than the halfling bard Yorick Proudhollow.

    Upright: beginnings, naivete, openness, vulnerability

    Reversed: immaturity, lack of preparedness

  • 1 - The Magician - Fatima

    The Magician is about potential. It’s decisive and creative in a very Capricorn way, making it the perfect card for our fearless forever DM Fatima.

    Upright: creation, action, manifestation

    Reversed: blocked creativity, lack of conviction, self-sabotage

  • 2 - The High Priestess - Jen

    The High Priestess is about tapping into your intuition and trusting your own wisdom. Jen is wise and stable and intuitive, and she brings out the best in others.

    Upright: intuition, introspection, spirituality

    Reversed: excessive introspection, disconnection

  • 3 - The Empress - Patricia

    The Empress represents Mother Earth in a way - she’s nurturing and soft. The natural world is her domain, and she encourages you to connect with it meaningfully, just like our matriarch Patricia.

    Upright: nature, softness, joy, richness of your inner world

    Reversed: natural destruction, correction, backlash

  • 4 - The Emperor - Alan

    The Emperor protects that which the Empress nurtures, just like Alan does for Patricia. He brings structure to his world and reminds you that you can take up space and hold expectations.

    Upright: structure, authority, boundaries, power

    Reversed: self indulgence, lack of self awareness, being overly demanding

  • You can shuffle the tarot however you’d like, as long as you don’t look at the cards as you do. The recipient of the reading (or you, if drawing for yourself) should channel their energy into the deck and signal to stop the shuffling when it feels right. Repeat this process for each card drawn.

    If any cards jump or fall out during shuffling, this is often thought of as a sign that the card should be chosen. You can place it and restart shuffling for the next draw.

  • Cards have different meanings (or, rather, inverted meanings) based on whether they are upright or reversed. This is from the perspective of the recipient of the reading. When flipping your cards over to reveal them, you can flip them horizontally or vertically, as long as you are consistent and intentional.

  • Whilst not necessary, many tarot practitioners choose to cleanse their decks to clear any specific energies. You can use the sun or moon, place the deck in a tray of salt, use crystals, or simply knock on the deck before or after using it.
