The Tarot deck contains 16 court cards with each of the four suits of the Minor Arcana containing a King, Queen, knight, and Page.
These court cards are often among the most challenging to understand for those learning the Tarot. In comparison to the other cards in the deck they contain relatively simple imagery with each card containing a solitary character.
This talk will outline the court cards, the four court positions and look at the 16 characters in these cards individually. Ultimately we gain a deeper insight into who these Person’s represent along with which traits or energy is being expressed in a spread.
Nick is a Tarot reader with over 20 years of experience working with the cards and has been a full-time professional reader since 2020. Nick uses the Tarot to help clients find clarity around the situations they are navigating in life while also empowering them to be aware of their agency and choices that give them a role in creating their future.
