"Hi, welcome back. My guest Marybeth Murphy, spiritual coach is teaching us how to read tarot cards. And now we're learning how to, what the Minor Arcana cards are like the Cups and the Wands. The last sequence we dealt with two other forms of, two other groups of Minor Arcana, this time we're talking about two new groups of Minor Arcana; they are the Cups and the Wands. The Cups usually deal with inner reflection; spiritual authority, contemplation, emotional issues. So if you draw a card that has a Cup on it, it's usually making you look within. Sometimes as humans we don't want to do that. That's why we use vehicles like this. Wands are dealing with basically your core of self confidence, power, it can deal with authority but it's making you more look at your self esteem issues, looking at your inner core, your self reliance, your confidence level. So sometimes if a cards comes up like that, it might be asking you to look at yourself, but it might also be referencing another human being that might be in your life that might be causing some negative affects upon you with some of their own issues. So the cards, even though I'm being literal on these groups in what they mean, they can be interpreted along those lines in many different ways and it might not be about yourself, it might be about somebody else in your life. But again you have to look at the whole spread and your intuition as you're giving the reading as well as the person who is giving you a reading as to look at what information they're getting with their own intuition. So this is being literal but there's a lot left open as we move forward we'll be explaining that as well. And what are we doing next? Oh, later on we're actually going to be looking at each of these Minor Arcana, are composed of Ace, and 2 through 10 as well as a Page and a Knight, and a Queen and a King cards and we'll be looking at them next. Great I can't wait."
