The first volume covers childhood:
The Fool - The soul waiting to be born
The Magician - The newborn who seems perfect in every way and has so much potential.
The High Priestess - The baby living off instinct in those first few months.
The Empress - The child playing
The Emperor - The child being disciplined
The Hierophant - The school child forming ideas about the world
The Lovers - The teenager beginning to make choices about what they want and who they want to be with.
The Chariot - The young adult striving to be successful.
That's one way of looking at it anyway. There are many more. That's the beautiful confusing thing about Tarot. It's like a diamond. Every time you turn it around in your hand you see another side.
What about you? What's your take on the first 8 cards of the Big Book of Tarot?
