DEFINITIONS

Page: In the standard Tarot deck, the Pages are one of the four “Court” cards found in each suit of the Minor Arcana. Although A.E. Waite, one of the designers of what has become the standard model, used a deck which was gender balanced in the Court cards (Kings, Queens, Princes, Princesses), Waite changed this to a more masculine orientation (Kings, Queens, Knight, Page). In a reading it indicates a young and growing force of the suit that is associated with the meaning of the suit. Thus, the Page of Wands, related to the element of Fire, indicates a new or growing change in energy, such as a career change, a letter with important information, etc. The Page of Cups, associated with the element of Water, is associated with the messages of new or changing emotions. It may or may not be related to a person.
