In psychological Tarot readings, the court cards represent people involved in the querent’s challenge.
The Page of Swords may represent an intelligent, energetic, perceptive youth: artistic or frivolous, aspiring or prodigal, graceful or inelegant.
The Page of Swords may also be a messenger and bear news that reveals new information, insight, truth, or perspectives.
Mind messengers are not necessarily aware that they bear a message. For instance, a person may say something that has a profound meaning only to the querent.
Further, messengers are not always people. Pages can also stand for omens, signs, and synchronicities, so-called messages from the universe. For instance, a billboard may display a message that only the querent can understand.
About the Court Cards
The four levels of human expression apply to the court cards, too. Wand court cards portray willful people with strong intent and/or a spiritual inclination. Cup court cards represent creative, passionate, and romantic people with cultivated feelings. Sword court cards illustrate intelligent, discerning, and analytical people. Pentacle court cards personify practical, down-to-earth, realistic people.
Each Enlightenment Tarot court card displays a set of human character traits to ease the recognition of the people involved in the querent’s challenge.
The court cards correspond to the four astrological quarters:
Wands/fire: Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius
Cups/water: Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces
Swords/air: Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius
Pentacles/earth: Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn
The querent may identify the people involved in her challenge by considering their sun sign. But she needs to take this with a grain of salt, since the ascendant and the Chinese signs play a role, too.
