Who or what do court cards represent
Each card representation of real souls or people is situational and therefore somewhat fluid. For instance, John Smith may be a king (ie a master) in one aspect of your life but a page (ie a complete novice) in another aspect of your life.
Lessons & needs
Remember that court cards are real people. Consequently, when readings include court cards;
- Personalize your perspective. Identify the real life person or soul being referenced.
- Consider the CTA that is inherent within a specific court rank. See the discussion of the CTAs below.
- like how someone with the ranking of a 'page' needs guidance and support. So the querant may start thinking
- "Person X (say 'Jack') needs guidance and support regarding his current matter Y as it relates to the suit.
- Consider the relevance of the suit to the soul's personal circumstances.
Rank-specific maturity level, energy & possible CTAs
PAGES
Key themes associated with a page include being receptive to learn, energy that is like youthful curiosity and potential. The page is inexperienced with the situation at hand. A page of a suit means that he needs to learn something from that suit. His knowledge and experience are the least matured of the court cards. However, the page wants to study and learn how to handle the suit in question. Although the page has youthful energy (regarding the matter at hand), this card can refer to anyone of any age who is now embarking on a lesson that is new to them related to the page's suit. (Read about the suits).
Regardless of who the page is in your real life; whether yourself, another soul or person or a group of souls, the card's CTA may suggest that the page get curious, study the matter, be receptive or even start a journey. (It might not relate to taking decisive action other than adopting a state of mind.
Another CTA is to recognize the page energy and to be accommodating of the page's needs. This usually means giving support and guidance on the new lesson.
KNIGHTS
Key themes associated with a knight include action-oriented energies (towards making a change), passion regarding the mission, movement, pursuit of goals, single-minded focus, and sometimes impulsiveness. When you see a knight card, in real life, the knight is likely already in the midst of his quest / hero's mission. In other words, he is no longer a complete novice like the page, the past, younger version of himself. His journey throws obstacles and tests along his path. These obstacles should be seen as opportunities for his personal growth and self-transformation.
Of all the court cards, knight cards have the strongest CTA. A strong CTA is to take decisive action and pursue objectives.
Since they itch for change, the CTA may be to direct or clear the path or help establish the mission.
QUEENS
Key themes associated with a soul or an energy with the queen energy include nurturing and emotional intelligence, somewhat like the nurturing of a traditional mother figure. Otherwise, themes include mastery (over her respective suit), relationship guidance and self-care, I would say as it relates to your psychological health and subconscious mind. Like kings, they are equal masters of their suit, but with more feminine energies, like empathy, more inward looking. Unlike the masculine drive of a king to just get things done, this feminine energy is more empathetically analytical.
A CTA is to nurture, to foster growth in oneself or others (ie rather than direct action). One way of understanding this energy is to see it as preparatory for the king's subsequent masculine, action-oriented energy. Imagine how this point epitomizes the concept of a mother-like figure that nurtures her children to give them an adequate foundation from which male energies can later work successfully. She feeds, cleans, disciplines, shows patience and kindness. Whether the 'child' is yourself, someone else, a past of trauma that must be resolved or a work project, the message is to actively nurture.
Your CTA may require you to connect to allow some authentic and loyal sharing of wisdom, mentorship and so on.
KINGS
Key themes associated with a soul or an energy with the king energy include authority, control and decisive masculine action that is based on mastery. This mastery represents the culmination of learning experiences. The king has already proven himself through life trials within the context of the suit and situation. The king is definitely a more competent version of the knight. Think of this energy as embodying the nature of a traditional 'manly' father figure, who is less concerned with the minutae of nurturing a home but more focused outwardly on interacting directly with the outside world. This energy completes the preparatory work of the queen to ensure the 'child' (whether a soul or project) is successful in the outside world. The king makes the final, decisive decisions and delegates everything other than their own responsibility. Consequently, 'he' will directly impact the outcome of your situation.
A CTA is to do what is required to let the king (whether you or another soul) use mastery to provide authoritative solutions, decisions or actions out in the world to lead to significant outcomes.
