It’s helpful to approach the numerology of the tarot as a cycle. Even numbers are often stable and enduring, while odd numbers generally embody various states of change and instability. The tarot is actually cyclical, so each ending also signifies a new beginning. Understanding the numerology of the tarot can provide a helpful window into the reading of the cards. Beyond learning the facts of numerology and the cards themselves, your accuracy in interpreting them will depend on your intuition and/or psychic abilities. With neither, a tarot reading will not mean much or could actually be quite harmful and a lack of empathy would suggest perhaps this is the wrong path to be on.

The Golden Tarot Major Arcana

Major Arcana cards show up when things are happening that pull us towards a certain destiny or path. Many Major Arcana cards in a reading is often a sign that our Spirit Guides and Angels are working behind the scenes to set everything up for us so that we can live the lives we are destined to live. While the Minor Arcana cards focus on the everyday actions and decisions you must face, these Major Arcana cards reveal messages about the bigger picture of your life and its long-term direction. A major arcana card represents an energy that is deep, strong, decisive or long-term. When a major arcana card appears in a reading, you have tapped into a powerful energy in some area of your life. The minor arcana cards do not carry the same weight, but they are still important. They chart the ups and downs of daily life and register changes in feelings and thoughts. These dramas are gripping while they occur, but they pass with time as new concerns take their place.

Comprised of imagery from the European masters paintings, Golden Tarot cards pay tribute to artwork of the Middle Ages and early Renaissance. The Golden Tarot of Klimt is one of the best for artwork. Golden Tarot aims to reconnect the Tarot aesthetically and esoterically to its origins in early-renaissance Italy. From a time of violence, pestilence and oppression came poignant images of gentle beauty and human frailty.

Creative Tarot: So at the time of the Enlightenment there was the Counter-Enlightenment, focused mostly in Germany. The Counter-Enlightenment thinkers argued for more enchantment, more untamed nature, less rationality. You might know these guys as the Romantics. They were philosophers, writers, poets, and artists, although not all of them were German. But they fought against the influence of the Enlightenment and became influential themselves. Which only goes to show that when you stake out a radical position—like, the rational brain is the only thing that matters; all else is a weakness that must be overcome—you are nurturing the extreme opposite of your position into existence as well. (Something that the tarot’s Chariot card knows very well.)

Complete Book of Tarot: A friend suggested I compile my tarot notes in book form, which resulted in Tarot Plain and Simple (1996). My continued interest in the shared symbolism of astrology and tarot eventually led to a second book, Tarot Beyond the Basics (2014). Because of the popularity of the first two books, Llewellyn asked me to write this one, my third about the tarot. The reader will notice the influence of Freud and Jung as well as my background in psychiatry and psychology in the way I approach the cards.
