Four, Five, Six and Seven
The elements give us a clue as to the meaning in the minor arcanum, so any Pentacle card is going to be talking about things happening in your real Earthly, physical life, and any cup card will be referring to something happening in your emotional world.
Here’s a reminder of the elements associated with each suit:
- Swords – Air – Thought
- Cups – Water – Emotions
- Wands – Fire – Action
- Pentacles – Earth – Physical
Below you will find some key words as a quick reference for each card covered in this session.
Four

- 4 wands – Celebration, joy
- 4 cups – Apathy, not seeing the gifts
- 4 swords – Rest from strife
- 4 pentacles – He has attained material success and power but nothing beyond
Five

- 5 wands – Quarrelling, strife, competition
- 5 cups – Disappointment and regret
- 5 swords – Disagreement, conflict
- 5 pentacles – Material trouble
Six

- 6 wands – Victory after strife
- 6 cups – Emotional happiness and connection
- 6 swords – Success after anxiety, moving to calmer waters
- 6 pentacles – Success in business
Seven

- 7 wands – Opposition and possible victory, depending on courage and other influences, defining my turf
- 7 cups – Opportunities and hidden talents
- 7 Swords – Unstable effort, deception
- 7 pentacles – Reflecting on work done
From now until the end of this course, I strongly recommend continuing your daily card practice as you get to know the deck more deeply.
