Minor Arcana
The set of tarot cards divided into four suits: wands, cups, swords, and pentacles. Some use them and others do not. It is also a matter of affinity.
The minor arcana complement the major arcana by providing a more concrete and more detailed reading of situations. They often describe everyday dynamics, relationships, work, or material circumstances.
Each suit generally includes ten numbered cards and four court cards: king, queen, knight, and page.
In some approaches, the minor arcana are read in a very narrative way, while in other methods they are interpreted mainly from their symbolic structure and their relationship with the major arcana.
