Hi, welcome back to arts and crafts and everything fun. I'm here with Marybeth Murphy and she's
teaching us how to use the tarot cards. Next she's going to teach us about three more Arcana
cards. These are the major Arcana cards and as I'm going through each of these Arcana
cards I am using the book that comes with the cards so you can feel free to utilize
that. Some people don't want to use the book but it's okay, because you're going to get
a deeper meaning from the cards each time you use them, and eventually you won't have
to use the book anymore but I've been using these cards for what, close to ten years and
I still go back to the book now and again because sometimes I need a refresher on what
the card means or I'm just feeling guided to do so. So be aware that your intuition
is going to play a big part in this. Here we're going to look at the empress, and the
empress is basically balance. It is how you'll meet your success, and what it says is in
a true victory both sides will win, and so you're going to consider all sides when you
are on your road to success or whatever it is. It's that one will not be successful over
the cost of another. The emperor is the opposite; basically real, true masculine power and strength,
and competitiveness. It's looking at the fact that there's one winner and one loser, and
that's the way it is. It's kind of like, how competitive are you, and are you going to
hit people up on your climb to the top or not. Again I'm giving you a very literal sense
and these cards are developed over a long period of time so be aware of that. The next
card is the hierophant or the pope if you will, and that's really dealing with spiritual
authority and awareness. I'll read to you "a spiritual guidance and authority, a tradition
instructor may be necessary at times to bring order from chaos." This card may also signify
a serious change in relationships possibly. Be aware that it's really looking at spiritual
guidance and awareness, and this is the pope card. So what's coming up next, Marybeth?
I'm going to be dealing with three more of the major Arcana cards. Three more of the
major arcana cards. Stay tuned for that.
