Minor Arcana
The Minor Arcana represents the smaller in-the-moment parts of life. It is composed of four suits: Wands, Cups, Swords, and Pentacles. As mentioned above, each of these suits represent an element and, therefore, one of the four zodiac signs.
The order of the suits depends on the reader you’re talking to. In this case, we’ll use the suits as reference zodiac wheel. The order of the elements goes like this: fire, earth, air, and water. So, the suits follow in respect to the element it represents: Wands (fire), Pentacles (earth), Swords (air), and Cups (water).
