ASTROLOGY GUIDE

Embarking on a cosmic journey through the world of astrology can be an enriching experience. Our website's "Learn" tab is a simple reference of foundational astrology: the ten planets, twelve zodiac signs, twelve houses, elements, modalities, and major aspects.

TEN PLANETS

Each planet in astrology holds a specific energy and represents different aspects of our lives. The Sun and Moon, while technically luminaries, represent our core personality and emotions respectively. Mercury transmits and communicates, Venus loves and unifies, and Mars asserts our actions. Jupiter expands and brings luck, while Saturn brings lessons and structure. Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto, the outer planets, reflect generational influences and deep transformations. And let’s not forget Earth, grounding us in our daily experiences.

TWELVE SIGNS

The zodiac wheel comprises twelve unique signs, each connected to specific traits, strengths, and challenges. Aries initiates and energizes, while Taurus senses and stabilizes. Gemini communicates, Cancer nurtures and comforts. Leo shines bright, and Virgo analyses with ritualistic efficiency. Libra considers and balances, Scorpio intensely dives deep. Sagittarius explores, Capricorn structures. Aquarius innovates, and Pisces dreams. Each sign offers a fresh perspective on life and relationships.

TWELVE HOUSES

Astrology goes beyond just zodiac signs. The twelve houses in a birth chart delineate different life areas, from personal identity (1st house) to hidden depths (12th house), and everything in between. They reveal where the energies of planets and zodiac signs play out in our lives.

ELEMENTS

These represent the primary energies and temperaments in astrology.

Fire (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius) exudes enthusiasm and passion.
Earth (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn) grounds into the tangible with stability.
Air (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius) thrives on intellect and social connections.
Water (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces) delves into emotions and intuition.

MODES

These categorize the zodiac signs based on their approach to life. Also, called qualities, these are the quality of energy.

Cardinal signs (Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn) are initiators, starting new cycles.
Fixed signs (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, Aquarius) are the sustainers, providing stability.
Mutable signs (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, Pisces) are adaptors, bringing change and transition.

TAROT GUIDE

We are all psychic. The trick is in keeping the channel clear in a world of noise.

This guide is meant to be a starting point—a simple foundation. It is not here to replace your intuition. You are the expert.

When you pull a card, your first impression—the image that catches your eye, the feeling in your body, the word or memory that stirs—is just as important (if not more so) than any written meaning. Tarot speaks in layers, and your own resonance is the key to unlocking them.

Tarot is layered and deep. Each card offers more than its keywords. Meaning comes through the imagery, colors, and symbols. Through the way a figure is turned—face-forward, looking away, to the left or right. Through the position of the card in a spread, and through the question in your heart when you draw it.

Think of this guide as scaffolding. It gives you a frame. But you fill it with your own perception, story, and knowing.

The Structure of the Tarot

The tarot is made up of 78 cards, divided into the Major Arcana and the Minor Arcana.

The Major Arcana (cards 0–21) tell the story of the Fool’s Journey.
It begins with 0: The Fool, the leap into the unknown, and travels through archetypes of growth, challenge, love, transformation, and awakening until it arrives at XXI: The World, the completion of a cycle. These 22 cards are the “big picture” archetypes of the tarot, revealing spiritual, universal, and life-changing themes.

The Minor Arcana are the everyday reflections, the details of daily life, divided into four elemental suits:

Wands – Fire
Known for passion, inspiration, creativity, action, and swiftness
Cups – Water
Linked with emotions, intuition, relationships, love, healing, and the heart.
Swords – Air
Associated with thoughts, communication, beliefs, conflict, struggle, and clarity of mind.
Pentacles – Earth
Traditionally connected to health, wealth, education, work, property, and the material world.

Each suit runs from Ace through Ten (telling a mini-story of beginnings, development, challenge, and completion.

The minors are followed by the Court Cards: Page, Knight, Queen, and King.

The Courts often represent people, roles, or aspects of yourself—ranging from the Page’s curiosity and openness, to the Knight’s active pursuit, to the Queen’s mature wisdom, to the King’s steady authority.

✨ Remember: The tarot is both mirror and map. Use these meanings as doorways, but let your intuition walk you through. Your connection with the cards is the most important guide of all.

How to Pull a Card

Tarot meets you where you are. The way you pull a card can be simple, yet powerful—what matters most is your presence and your intention.

Begin by bringing a question to mind. It can be specific—What insight do I need about this decision?—or open—What energy is guiding me today?

Hold the question gently, like a whisper in your heart.
Close your eyes. Take a breath. Allow yourself to feel grounded.

Then, when you are ready, you may:

Press pause randomly if you are using the tarot video trusting that the moment you stop, the right card will reveal itself.
Take a screenshot if you’re working with the tarot video—capturing whichever card appears at the instant of your click.
Or, with a physical deck, simply shuffle until it feels right and draw the card that calls to you.

The method is less important than your openness. The card you draw is a mirror of the question you carried in, and of the energy surrounding you in that moment.

Once you’ve pulled your card, simply click on the icons below to explore the basic meanings.

These give you a starting place—upright and reversed interpretations—to help you begin your reflection. Let the meanings spark your intuition, not replace it.
