The Tarot Guide

Many of the numbered minor arcana cards also represent a sign of the zodiac. These can be very useful when trying to establish which zodiac sign a certain court card is representing as opposed to which element.    

Furthermore each of the court cards can represent the age or maturity level of the person they represent:

• Pages: Young children or people who are young at heart

• Knights: Young adults or people who are starting over

• Queens: Represent mature women or people with emotional maturity

• King: Represent mature men or men who are grounded and can provide leadership

Each type of court card also represents an element meaning the person the card represents may have a certain zodiac sign but will be influenced by the element associated with that court card:

• Pages are associated with Earth

• Knights with Air

• Queens with Water

• Kings with Fire
