Rider-Waite Tarot Deck
Rider-Waite Tarot Deck | Arthur Edward Waite
22 posts | 2 read
IN 1909, ARTIST PAMELA COLMAN SMITH, under the direction of Arthur Edward Waite, created an innovative 78-card tarot deck that would come to be recognized as revolutionary. With descriptive pictures on the 56 minor Arcana cards, the Rider-Waite deck digressed from the tradition of tarot decks used for centuries and set the standard for nearly every tarot deck published.

Today's card is the page of cups. A somewhat confusing card in the scheme of the ones that have been drawn, but a hopeful card. This card is all about creative possibility, intuition, new ideas, and curiosity . - @ErinSueMreads

“Death is one of my favorite cards. It's not the one you have to watch out for necessarily . That's the tower. Death is a rebirth and a new beginning often!” - @ErinSueMreads

Like the Phoenix rising from the ashes !! Death can mean the death to old self and being reborn as the new and fiery you 🔥🔥 #tarottakeover

“Our #tarottakeover seems to be taking us on a trip. Today's card is the two of wands. This card deals with avoidance and difficult decisions. Options need to be weighed!”- @ErinSueMreads
What book will you choose for this card??

#tarottakeover day 2!

Today is the Four Of Cups. Similar to the Hermit, it has to do with introspection. But, as we can see on the card, the Four Of Cups shows us that we may be missing other opportunities by focusing on one thing only. Thoughts? Books?

Megabooks Hmmm...this is an interesting one. 🤔🤔 4y
ravenlee This makes me think of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - how he gets so focused on being the Chosen One that he forgets he has a network of friends and allies ready to help. 4y
Meaw_catlady @Megabooks it is ! it took a lot of thinking for me to decide ! 4y
Meaw_catlady @ravenlee yes!!! His excuse is he‘s protecting others but it comes off as selfishness and hurts his friends ! We have to remember that our friends and allies are there to help and we can‘t be the hero or do it alone :) 4y

The first card drawn for #tarottakeover is The Hermit!

This card is all about change, introspection, and soul-searching. It is most commonly associated with times of change and personal discovery.

When I was younger I used to enjoy reading Tarot cards; less as a divination method and more of a way of meditating on a problem or situation. The star card which shows a #shiningstar represents regeneration and growth, purification and enlightenment. ⭐️

Did a reading for myself and this card appeared in a position that indicated "a special gift I was born with"

That seems accurate.

I love these cards. Found a soul healing spread on Pinterest. To sum up what this reading means is that I need to take stock of things, slow down, focus on what is important and I will be stronger because of it. #tarot
