There are only 22 Major Acrana cards in a tarot deck. They are known to have more energy behind them, move with more force. The other is known as the Minor Arcana and is comprised of 56 cards, then branched into four separate categories, and numbers from one to ten.

These cards are symbolized through everyday conflict and any current situations. Commonly known as less of an impact on your long-term journey, focusing on these cards during the short term is best.

Four Categories of the Minor Arcana

The four categories are divided up into wands, swords, cups, and pentacles. All representative of astrological elements, Leo is most associated with Wand energy because of the divinatory meaning behind these cards are more representative of fiery nature.

Since there are less Major Arcana, in the tarot deck than Minor Arcana it is known to be more significant if you’re presented with a Major Arcana card.
