The Last Five Tarot Cards of the Major Arcana Explained
The last five cards in the major arcana are some of the most significant cards in the deck. They demonstrate the last parts a humans life.
The Star can act as your guiding beacon, leading you forward down the often dimly lit path towards enlightenment. This card in a tarot reading symbolizes that there is help out there when you need it, up there in the sky and oftentimes deep within yourself where you haven’t looked yet. Faith and power define this card and it carries a very positive connotation. Trust that you will find the way out of troubled times and into the light. It is a time of belief and miracles.
The Moon is a vessel of many illusions. Nighttime makes the safe objects of daylight seem dangerous and untrustworthy. The “light” of the moon is actually just the reflected sunlight. Appropriately, this tarot card represents the illusions and deceptions that many of us fall victim to. Things are not always as they seem to be and the presence of this card in a tarot reading indicates that there is some truth that you are overlooking. Now is a time when you will have to travel that path without outside light or help, relying instead on inner strength and the glow you can generate from within. It can be hard to find your way down a path in the dark when there are so many twists, turns and obstacles to be dealt with. This is a time to rely on your instincts to guide you.
When you make it through the darkness of the Moon, the Sun will be waiting with its clarity and light. You are strong, wise and balanced under this card’s influence. Celebration, warmth and peace are aspects of the Sun. Any areas of darkness that might remain inside of you will be exposed for you to deal with
