Court Cards
Sixteen cards, four per suit, that often represent people, roles or attitudes in a reading.
The four ranks
| Rank | Stage | Often represents |
|---|---|---|
| Page | Student | Messages, curiosity, a young person |
| Knight | Seeker | Action, movement, pursuit |
| Queen | Mastery inward | Nurturing, emotional maturity |
| King | Mastery outward | Authority, decisions, leadership |
Combine rank and suit: the Queen of Cups is emotional wisdom, the Knight of Swords rushing to argue. Court cards may describe you, someone else, or an approach the situation calls for. Part of the Minor Arcana.

Common questions
Does a King always mean a man?
No. Court cards describe qualities, regardless of gender.
How do I know if a court card is me?
Its position and question help; often it is the attitude you are being asked to take.
