The meaning of the Mirror of Fate tarot cards is the basics that guarantee the success of your fortune telling. The major arcana, and there are fourteen of them in total, set the entire direction of the forecast. Be attentive to the dropped lassos:

King Card

This lasso indicates a person, most likely a man, with a friendly attitude towards others, but with a poor education. Predictions with the King card indicate demands that either you or your closest social circle succumb to. Often the major lasso with the image of a man on a throne is a prototype of the questioner and does not carry any special meaning for the layout.

Rider

Horseman - a card indicating a change of residence

A card foreshadowing a path associated with a change of place of residence is always favorable, regardless of what symbols appear nearby. Even minor quarrels predicted by the major lasso will soon be resolved. Be patient.

Ten

The Major Arcana, signifying a depressing situation that has arisen in your life, indicates strong obstacles. The obstacles that you fear so much do not last forever, and it is up to you how soon the path to success will be open again. The Ten card answers questions related to home and everyday problems.

A map of poverty, poor living conditions, the decline of all strength. This symbol overshadows the entire alignment and portends a long period of problems. Look at the nearby cards, they will tell you your next actions.

Six

The most favorable senior arcan of the Mirror of Fate deck, promising success, prosperity and receiving all kinds of benefits. In the near future you will receive news that will change all areas of your life. How soon will your triumph come? Card Six claims that you won’t have to wait long.

Troika

A symbol indicating a specific person whom you respect and consider an authority. Listen to the instructions of the prototype of the Arcana Troika and all your endeavors will be crowned with success. If there has been chaos and disorder in your affairs lately, this card promises the end of the crisis.

Deuce

The major lasso with a dual opposite interpretation, on the one hand promises happiness, and on the other indicates hidden inner fear. In cases where the layout is dominated by the Two, consider all the cards that fell after it. It is the additional symbols that will determine the meaning of the major lasso.

Major Arcana – Ace

The Mirror of Fate deck, after carefully listening to the question that worries you, provides the answer, but whether to listen to mystical advice or not is only your choice.

Ace is a card that guarantees inspiration

The major arcana can dominate the layout or simply complement it. You should feel in which direction the mysterious ancient symbols of the Mirror of Fate deck are leading you.

Gallery of Cups Tarot Mirror of Fate

The fourteen minor arcana are full-fledged “residents” of the Mirror of Fate deck. The main feature of Cups is their categorical nature, that is, the prediction of feelings is marked by a strong reaction. The minor arcana include:

Cup – King

A symbol indicating a person with high spirituality and position in society predicts hypocrisy, rumors that circulate behind your back. If public opinion is important to you, then the King in the reading is an unfavorable sign. Look around, do your friends and family always sincerely sympathize with you?

Queen

The cup, symbolizing a wise woman, can represent upcoming happiness. An inverted card should be interpreted as debauchery directed against your personal life. Is your lover faithful?

Eight of Cups

A favorable card in any position affects the entire layout. The minor lasso portends only success and joy. Enjoy your own life, appreciate every moment of it.

Six

A positive Cup, promising either long-awaited news or sudden renewal in the house. How long has it been since you bought new furniture or dishes? It's time to please your household with gifts.

Four of Cups

The minor arcana indicates boredom that is stunting your growth. Promotion will not happen if you do not get rid of aggravating circumstances. Four inverted indicates new connections that are beneficial for your business and new endeavors.

Deuce

Boundless love, reciprocity, fidelity - the sign of the Two of Cups in the layout, softens even the most negative nearby cards. The Mirror of Fate deck, through the minor arcana Two, warns of false feelings and false promises. Be extremely careful when choosing a partner.

Ace

Ace of Cups - a symbol of true love

A symbol of true love, which warms not only the soul, but also the mind. This minor lasso promises moving into a joint home or purchasing common real estate. Don't be afraid of the upcoming changes, they will only benefit you.

Pentacles of an ancient deck

The final cards of the deck, the denarii, are just as important as the basic arcana. An identical number of card symbols indicate benefits that you can achieve or failures that await you in the near future.

Turning events of the future, moments of the past not taken into account, neglect of the situations of the present - all the information you need for a happy life will be revealed in the cards that fall out.

Rest assured that when read correctly, the symbols indicate all hazards and warn you of what you should avoid.

It so happened that this was my first tarot deck, bought at a stall like “Soyuzpechat” more for entertainment than for fortune telling. Then I didn’t think that I would be so passionate. By that time, many books with classical descriptions had been read, and images of the Rider-Waite tarot had been studied. Therefore, “Mirror of Fate,” to be honest, at first, caused discomfort. It seems to be the same in essence, but still in some places the images on the maps are too different. Later in the process of practice, I really appreciated this difference, so I never returned to classic RU. More on this a little later, but now a little history.

The deck was printed in St. Petersburg. She's not original. It is a Russification of the Arcus Arcanum Tarot deck by German tarot reader Günther Hager and Swiss comic book artist Hans-Rudi Wescher. The deck was first published in 1986. The author wrote a book that was sold along with the deck. The deck also comes with a brochure with a brief description of the major and minor arcana, as well as several standard layouts. The translation of the deck's name roughly sounds like "Secrets of the Bow", "Secrets of the Bow" or "Mysterious Bow". This is explained by the fact that just as the bow connects two opposite poles, so the tarot allows you to connect the conscious with the unconscious.

The deck is drawn in a comic book style and contains medieval, mythological, romantic scenes, which suggest that after struggle and adversity comes happiness and beauty. The images of living creatures and symbols are very clear. Clothing and buildings are from the Middle Ages.

The colors correspond to the elements. The wands are depicted in red, yellow and orange colors - the element of fire.

Cups - in blue, turquoise and light green - the element of water.

The pentacles are drawn with brown and dark green colors - earth.

And the swords - gray, purple and dark blue - are air.

Hager and Washer included a minimal number of occult symbols, only the most vivid and understandable ones.

According to the author's idea, each scene is explained and then interpreted on two levels: a) internal, spiritual and b) external, practical. I won’t say that this is a unique approach to the interpretation of tarot cards, but it is effective and deep.

For example, for SA the Emperor, who sits near his castle and represents the element of fire, the internal interpretation is the establishment and maintenance of stability and order according to the rules of the Emperor himself, in order to guarantee security in the future. The practical significance is that the establishment of such an order requires self-discipline, understanding of the need for these measures and a reasonable attitude towards them. Often, this card speaks of the influence of a very energetic person with leadership abilities on the situation.

One of the reviews noted the peculiarity of this deck of showing the main symbols in close-up. I completely agree with this thesis.

Look how much more emotionally drawn the card of 2 cups is

On the 10m card, unlike many decks, the person is alive. It's hard for him, but he'll get through it.

And how much more positive does the 9 of Pentacles card look! It depicts two people. This is important in a relationship. Because in the RU deck on this card, although there is a happy, but lonely woman, which does not add joy to the questioners who came to consult on personal issues.

The compact size of the deck was also a godsend. It is convenient to lay it out on small surfaces. There is often not enough space for a standard tarot.

And of course there are some moments that I didn’t really like. The images seemed rough, not gentle enough, and the color range was poor. Later it became clear that this is due to the comic book type of image, when all the details are first drawn in ink and then decorated with colors. Besides, a medieval deck is more likely to look like this. In any case, I love this deck for its positivity and clarity. Now she is not the only workhorse, but she always gratefully answers all my questions.

In future publications, expect a description of the differences between the Mirror of Fate deck and the classic Rider-White deck and personal remarks regarding individual card meanings.
