Oh no, it’s the Devil card! Don’t worry, it’s not all brimstone and evil… generally the Devil represents very human aspects, rather than supernatural ones.

The Chariot calls all travelers and adventurers! This is a card of exploration and expansion that guides you on a journey that you are about to take or one that you may possibly be started on already.

The Three of Pentacles is a very symbolic card representing a coming together or a union that is both beneficial and necessary. Three has always been a magic number of sorts.

If this Knight represents you as the queryent, then you are a super protective kind of person whose sense of duty and loyalty really motivates your life experience.

The Emperor is the counterpart of the Empress, but where the Empress is care free in her abundance, the Emperor is almost strict with his own form of stability and can symbolize many different things depending on the context in which he represents himself. If you receive this card during a general reading, then the Emperor is going to provide you with a solid, continual energy to benefit your life. He does not leave a lot of room for excess change or random behavior. The Emperor is pragmatic, regal and stately. His energy is full of action and drive, and there is no room for mistakes.

Wands are the representation of fire energy in the Rider-Waite tarot deck. The Ace is the core or primal representation of that energy.

Basically, it represents the seed of the fiery, passionate, energies in your life. These energies are typically favorable ones but unharnessed can be a bit much to handle.

The Seven of Swords is a card known to many for its different challenges. The importance of communicating yourself at this point, in your most honest way possible is that at this point in time you are traversing a potential trap of getting stuck into a lack mentality. Mental projects that you have applying efforts to be carried out into the physical world so that you can materialize your ideas into reality and so that you can see concrete results that you are proud of.

The Eight of Swords is commonly known as the card of victimization. You fear pain and restriction, yet that which you fear is exactly what is blocking you the most. You are going through a season where you do not trust anyone and you worse you are constantly doubting your own abilities. You are perpetuating this cycle by trying to battle more than one issue at a time and that is part of what is causing you debilitating indecision.
