The B and J on the High Priestess Card stand for Boaz and Jachin, the Pillars that stood at the entrance to Solomons Temple in Jerusalem, all mysteries of being. Solomon named them after influential people in the bible who had a direct baring on him. Boaz stands for Strength. Jachin (Pronounced Jay-chin) Stands for Stable Foundations, Beginning.  These pillars appear in Masonic Temples world wide.

 

I am running a beginners course to the Tarot Starting on the 3rd of August, where we will discuss each cards, it's symbolism and the different meaning the card can denote depending where it sits in a spread. Have  look in the Web Store. However feel free to ask as many questions as you wish here on the forum. That's what it's here for!

I keep meaning to look this up and never get round to it! Thanks. I love the stories you tell about the cards. I've learned more Greek Myths and more about Norse Gods from my readings than I did at school! Can you or anyone else tell me why is Death in my pack on a horse?

Death is on a white horse because he's one of the 4 horsemen of the apocolypse and his horse is called Binky. Binky can fly. Hope that helps ;) X

Seriously, I'd love to learn the meaning of the symbols in the tarot. Especially why there are such similarities between the packs but some of the cards are completely different.
