Tarot 101: The Story of the Major Arcana

If you’re new to tarot, you might not know that the twenty-two cards that make up the Major Arcana tell a story. Known often as “The Fool’s Journey”, this story shows the movement from each card starting with The Fool and ending with The World. This story is meant to be a metaphor for life and growth as a person. Knowing this story will help you better understand tarot and may also help you remember the purpose of each card in the Major Arcana. Here is that story (featuring some of the Major Arcana from the Linestrider Tarot by Siolo Thompson).

The Fool

image

The story opens with The Fool. This card represents naivety and the impulsivity that comes with inexperience. The Fool is an innocent and unaware of the hardships that may lay before them. 

The Fool is born.

The Magician

While The Fool becomes some of the cards that follow it, The Magician is one that appears as a secondary character in The Fool’s story. The Magician is a mysterious card. Connected with the conscious, he teaches The Fool how to impact the world. 

The Fool’s eyes are opened to magic.

The High Priestess

image

Around the same time The Fool meets The Magician, The High Priestess also comes into play. A mysterious individual connected to the unconscious, she is the mother of creative action. With her guidance, The Fool has agency to act on the world in a way unique to them as an individual.   

Together, The Magician and The High Priestess strike a balance – on one hand potential and on the other creation.

The Fool’s creativity is sparked.

The Empress

image

Following his growth after meeting The Magician and The High Priestess, The Fool enters the care of the Empress and The Emperor. The Empress is a motherly card. Connected to nature, she provides The Fool with support. Even though they are more aware of themselves and their abilities, The Fool still has a long journey ahead.

The Fool is guided by their mother, nurtured to move toward whatever calls them.

The Emperor

The Emperor is the second half of this parental duo. The father, The Emperor is a force of authority. He gives The Fool structure to guide them forward. This structure gives The Fool access to knowledge about the patterns of the world, the way things work, and how rules affect them and who they are.

The Fool’s father shows them structure.

The Hierophant

Moving away from their parents, The Fool, now out in the world encounters The Hierophant. Now, seeking education, The Fool finds in The Hierophant knowledge about belief systems, religions, and ideologies and how they function in the world around them. The Hierophant is connected to the arcane and enlightens The Fool in the ways of culture and identity. 

The Fool enters the world.

The Lovers

image

Now, indoctrinated into the ways of the world and society, The Fool is entering their teenage phase. This is when, for many, feelings of love and sexual attraction become a priority. Until this point, The Fool focused only on themself, and their interactions with the other characters were self-serving. 

The Lovers present them with a new milestone, not just love and relationships, but also receiving outside opinions. Even when they are not interacting with another person romantically or sexually, The Fool needs to be able to find harmony in the ways their individuality meshes and interacts with others’.

The Fool battles with harmony of the self and love.

The Chariot

Going through the trials set before The Fool by The Lovers, they eventually make their way to adulthood. Now, The Fool has a grasp of their own creativity, a sense of their place in the world, and understands the value of those around them. The Fool feels as though they are on a path to triumph.

The Chariot comes to stand in the way of this. Connected to the ego, The Chariot has a larger control over his presence in the world than The Fool does. The challenge here is for The Fool to find satisfaction in their own successes. Here, The Fool learns to have self-confidence. 

The Fool finds their confidence.

Strength

As they navigate adult life, The Fool finds that there are ups and downs, as many rocks in their paths as there are flowers. They learn to draw on Strength to hone their abilities to be patient, tolerant. Strength supports many aspects of their life both physical and emotional.

The Fool finds physical and emotional strength.

The Hermit

image

With all the knowledge The Fool has gained to this point of their adult life, they begin to return to the question we often ask during our childhood—“Why?” In a search for answers, The Fool begins to look for knowledge within. The Hermit is who The Fool becomes at this stage of introspection.

The Fool seeks solitude and the knowledge to be found there.

Wheel of Fortune

After time spent looking at the way the world works and their place in it, The Fool has begun to notice patterns and cycles in the movement of the world. Some of this The Fool now understands as the way of life. Others they attribute to fate.

The Fool watches the world, the way it spins and how everything happens for a reason and with some cause.

Justice

image

With a better understanding of the cause and effect nature of the world around them and the way that there things both controllable and uncontrolled, The Fool now looks backward. It is time to understand the ways they have had an impact on the world and take responsibility for their actions. They know now that Justice weighs on everyone, and The Fool must decide which way to tip the scales.

The Fool sees their impact on the world.

Hanged Man

Justice has made The Fool prone to excessive control over their place in the world. As much as withdrawing before helped them gain more knowledge, trying to puck deeply at everything they do holds them back. When The Fool lets go, lets things happen as much as making them happen, their world is changed. They hang freely in the balance of life and decision.

The Fool is freed and martyred.

Death

image

With knowledge about themselves and love and the patterns and cycles of life and justice and fate, The Fool begins to take time to dissect themselves once again. This time, the introspection is productive. The Fool undergoes change, letting go of habits and unnecessary worries. This dramatic change is hard, and letting go is even painful at times, but The Fool emerges transformed.

The Fool sheds themselves.

Temperance

Even though The Fool has changed and has learned, their movement through life is still fairly erratic. Temperance teaches The Fool to seek balance and hold onto it. They do not need to move back and forth between happiness and practicality. They can find harmony and fulfillment.

The Fool finds equilibrium.

The Devil

image

Despite Temperance’s guidance, The Fool continues to stray ignorantly from one obsession to the next finding freedom in some places and despair in others. They are not the same person they began their life journey as, but they are still not strong enough to resist the attraction of the material things The Devil offers.

The Fool is tempted by ignorance and obsession.

The Tower

The Fool is trapped under the influence of his baser instincts and The Devil’s penchant for creating hopelessness. In The Tower of their despair, The Fool finds themselves surrounded by a chaotic landscape inside and within themselves. Only a great cataclysmic event will destroy The Tower and free them.

The Fool is trapped.

The Star

A blast causes The Tower to crumble in a violent moment that leaves The Fool shaken and scared. The light of The Star shines brightly down. Everything has been lost, but The Star gives The Fool hope.

The Fool finds hope.

The Moon

image

Even with hope, The Fool is not returned to a state of pure peace. The Moon, always half in shadow, provides inspiration for the imagination, and the illusions it causes confuse The Fool and show them that they are still lost.

The Fool learns that not everything is as it seems.

The Sun

When The Sun rises in the wake of The Tower’s destruction, The Fool can see their illusions and fears in a new light. Good things are attainable. It is time for The Fool to start reaching for them again.

The Fool finds their feet.

Judgement

The Fool is new. After all the trials and journeys they have faced, they can see clearly and know now that Justice weighs heavily on all, but they must be able to forgive themselves for their actions and move forward toward their true purpose and what is most fulfilling to them.

The Fool reassesses their life to this point.

The World

image

In the final stage of a The Fool’s journey, they leave behind the ruins of the Tower and renter The World. With an entire life behind them and all the opportunity possible ahead of them, they become part of The World, reveling in their accomplishments and knowing that they have the strength to survive and, more importantly, that their journey never truly ends.

The Fool dives headfirst into life.

Okay something that bothers me is the fact physics is seen as the more prestigious of the three main sciences, with biology at the bottom and chemistry in the middle. Like. I doubt most people could name a famous biologist, but they could name 5 famous physicists. Why are Albert Einstein and Stephen hawking household names but Norman Borlaug and Jonas Salk aren't?

Not to dismiss the accomplishments of Einstein or Hawking, or their genius, but their actual tangible contributions to society have been miniscule compared to that of Borlaug or Salk who have each saved LITERALLY hundreds of millions, if not billions, of lives each. Half the food on your plate was probably grown thanks to Borlaug and Salk is the reason half your siblings didn't die of polio as a kid.

Sure Einsteins theory of relatively is important for modern satellite communications but really though how can it compare?

This is coming from someone who studied physics. I love physics, and years ago when i was at uni I looked down at biology and so did everyone else studying physics. And I know others did too. Retroactively of course I know this was so very wrong.

If society as a whole started treating biology with more respect then maybe more students would go into that field. If we had rockstars of medicine and agricultural science that were household names rather than just physicists? think of how many more lives could be saved, how many more lives could be improved.

I'm not saying physics isn't important, and more scientists of any kind is always good, but proportionally I think societies priorities are a little skewd.

on sex, religion, and agency

On Sex, Religion, And Agency

I like to study the sexual behaviours and proclivities of men and women around the globe and throughout history; it’s one of the subjects that interest me. As such, I was watching Sex in a Cold Climate, a documentary on the Magdalene laundries of Ireland. It was a very fascinating film and I highly recommend it. It’s said that the laundries took in girls who were considered ‘promiscuous’, those who were unmarried mothers or were considered a burden on their families. Named after the Bible’s redeemed prostitute, Mary Magdalene, the laundries were first used to reform these so-called ‘fallen women’. But, they then expanded. According to this source:

“From the early 1920s, it is estimated that tens of thousands of women worked in the laundries, which were run as businesses while the women were said to go unpaid. Women worked in the laundries sometimes for years. On arrival at the laundry, they were said to have been given a different name by which they would be known. Those who have spoken about their experiences talk of constantly washing laundry in cold water, of using heavy irons for hours, of close friendships being forbidden, and of never feeling free to leave. Ireland’s last Magdalene Laundry closed in 1996. In 1993, the laundries were brought to light when a convent sold off part of its land and the remains of 155 inmates who had been buried in unmarked graves on the property were exhumed”.

I’m just gonna tell you, some of those women deserved to be there. But not all of them, as according to Wikipedia:

“…by the end of the 19th century, Magdalen laundries were filled with many different kinds of women, including girls who were “not prostitutes at all”, but either “seduced women” or women who had yet to engage in sexual activity…”.

Some of these women were committed to the nuns’ “care” by their fathers or brothers, sometimes simply for dating men they disapproved of.  A woman didn’t have to be ‘fallen’. Most of the documented “Magdelenes” that were held at these asylums hailed from the Aries though the Leo Plutonian generations. If I had to put this timespace into aspect terms, it would be some heavy Saturn opposite Uranus (discipline and structure pitted against freedom and reform), Jupiter opposite Pluto (religious and spiritual convictions creating considerable animosity and havoc) and/or Saturn opposite Lilith (projecting fear and trepidation of dark, independent feminine sexuality by exerting often violent control) shit going on. The cult of secrecy dictates that there were some very dark Saturnian as well as Lilithian and Plutonic forces at work here.

The laundries were started in the late 18th century (1758, according to Wikipedia), which would encompass the Pluto in Capricorn generation, in which the spotlight shone on all forms of structures, traditions and social conventions. Religious structures that no longer functioned were broken down and reformed. New ways of teaching are developed. They were more polarized—seeing things in black and white. It is under this generational force that the laundries began. Subsequent Plutonian generations dealt with this oppressive regime of fear and prayer imposed by these Capricorn Plutonians, and their experiences were as varied as they were harsh by today’s standards. The power of the Church and the stigma associated with unmarried mothers was so overwhelming that for decades the harsh treatment of these women and their children were taboo subjects, and many were forgotten. It’s easy for us now to sit in judgement of how orphans and homeless girls were taken care of back in those times, because we are a well-off society as a whole now in comparison. But back in those times, it was a disgrace for a girl to get pregnant and not be married. Illegitimate children were second class citizens and treated badly. Their families were embarrassed by them and many families put them out. To be fair, these homes were better than the street. And this wasn’t by the Catholic church or any church, it was by society as a whole. It just happens to be that the churches that ended up with these unfortunate people. Churches ran these places as “charities”. These children and the girls would have been homeless on the streets. Back then poor houses and orphanages and homes for unwed mothers didn’t get subsidized by the government. Anything they had was earned or donated. They had to sustain themselves. 

To speculate further astrologically, those with Pluto in Aries (1822 to 1853) would have had it the hardest. They could be quite rash and impatient in their search for independence and new ways of doing things, which in those days, undoubtedly worked against them. The Pluto Taureans (1853–1884) would have had it a bit easier in that they were just as conservative as the original Plutonian generation that established the laundries, however, they’d get in trouble by manipulating their environment, and some of this generation were seemingly never satisfied, always needing more and more. The Gemini Plutonians (1882–1914) wanted to bring about a revolution in ideas and concepts. Along with all this change and upheaval came a revolution in the way people communicated. More people had access to a greater amount of knowledge than ever before. Opportunities with education also expanded, allowing people to question more and learn more. Those with Pluto in Cancer (1914–1939) were known for their devastating social upheavals concerning home and family. Traditions disappeared as extreme conditions such as the two World Wars, the Roaring Twenties and the Great Depression forced people to rely on their own resources and change their attitudes towards family and home. Members of this generation were often uprooted from either their homes or their homeland. Often their emotionally strong views bordered on the obsessive. And lastly, the Leo Plutonians (1937–1958) would be highlighted by the clash between authoritarianism and individualism. They wanted freedom in their relationships and wanted power over their own lives and were prepared to challenge established structures. Lilith is why so many of us are so damned scared to be our whole selves around each other, because we’re all operating on this collective paradigm that there is something within us that is just so bad that we can’t possibly own it, let alone show it to each other and I base this view on things like the Magdalene laundries and the often painful history of organized religion in general. Systematically through history, we have fragmented and shamed away the parts of ourselves that would nourish us and keep us safe (which is incidentally a very Cancerian concept).

Until we come to terms with the totality of the human experience as it’s manifested in its male and female form, creation will continue to be out of whack until we dig through the murk we’ve thrown on the feminine to realize she’s just what we were searching for.
