I am trying to deepen in the meaning of the Court Cards, not in an esoteric way, but to apply directly in readings, and I have been thinking that when the Tarot was created it was tried that these were a mundane representation of the Mayors.
The reasons could have been many, but what concerns me now is to find the most exact relationships, or at least the most useful ones.
There are some about which i have less doubts, they are these:
The Devil- King of Wands
Strength - Queen of Wands
The Fool- Knight of Wands
Hierophant- King of Cups
High Priestess- Queen of Cups
Lovers- Knight of Cups
The Emperor- King of Pentacles
The Empress- Queen of Pentacles
Chariot- King of Swords
Justice- Queen of Swords
The Tower- Knight of Swords
My more serious doubts are for:
Page of Wands- Magician (new energy and motivation?)
Page of Cups- Temperance (starting to handle the power to see and health?
Knight of Pentacles- Wheel of Fortune ( material success, change in material stuffs?)
Page of Pentacles- Magician (start to materialize things?)
Page of Swords- the Hanged Man ( power but contained, a diferent way to see things but still can't do nothing with that...learning but with sacrifice?)
Where The Hermit? with the Knight of Cups too?
And Death with the Page of Swords? No violence as the Knight but even using the sharp blade of its sword to change and reborn? or perhaps The Death hasn't any relation? The only card with no any representation at the mundane world, because it takes you out from it?
Which changes would you do?
And the other fives (The Star, The Moon, The Sun, Judgement and The World) are not contained here, I believe that those are the true " Mayor Triumphs" and that they respond to universal and stellar forces, of those that the human destination would depend.
Can you help me?
Thanks in advance !
