2 of Pentacles

2 of Pentacles from the Herbcrafter’s Tarot We have started looking at all of the Twos within the Minor Arcana of a tarot deck, and the first post was the 2 of Cups, which you can read here.  The roles of the Twos within the Minor Arcana (all four of them) speak to duality, give-and-take, […]

Camel: The Wild Unknown Animal Spirit

Making our way through the animals within the fire element of the Wild Unknown Animal Spirit deck, we have come to our seventh animal, the Camel. The camel comes after the tarantula, a card that speaks to claiming your life’s purpose and following your intuition. Now, the camel says that we take that decision and […]

2 of Cups

2 of Cups from the Tarot of Dragons We have now gone through all of the Aces in the Minor Arcana of the tarot. Just a reminder that the main difference between the Major Arcana and the Minor Arcana is that the Majors speak to the big mysteries, questions, symbols, archetypes, or moments in life. […]

Tarantula: The Wild Unknown Animal Spirit

After the destruction and annihilation that comes from the Panther, we emerge more aligned and clear in our path forward.

It makes sense that the animal that resides at this position is as ferocious […]

Ace of Swords

Ace of Swords from the Rider-Waite Tarot Next in the tarot deep dives is the Ace of Swords. So far, we have done a deep dive into the Ace of Cups and the Ace of Pentacles. I encourage you to go back and read those blogs, or listen to the podcast episodes, as you will […]

Lizard: The Wild Unknown Animal Spirit

The fourth animal from the Wild Unknown Animal Spirit deck is the Lizard. Coming after the Scorpion, with its fierce and fiery energy, we need to find some stability, which the Lizard encourages. There needs to be a bit of a metaphorical cooling off.  With the Scorpion, we recognize how the spirit within (as we […]

Ace of Pentacles

Ace of Pentacles from the Rider-Waite Smith Tarot Next in the deep dives is the Ace of Pentacles. After covering the Ace of Cups, which you can read here, we will see how the Minors carry similar energies thanks to the numerology, but hold nuance because of the elementation with each different suit. At the […]
