Cloud Meaning in Tarot
If we look for consistency in the cards, we will see clouds looming as a
prominent feature in the ace cards of the Tarot. The reasoning mind says this
has got to be a key. So, taking a look at the aces, we get the feeling of
initiation, the beginning of a procession, the start of the parable that is the
corresponding suit.
This kind of "initiatory" feeling combined with cloud meaning
prompts a feeling of epiphany. Have you ever suddenly been struck "out of
the blue" with an utterly delicious idea? From out of nowhere it comes -
like magic! The aces of the Tarot reveal that kind of revelational feeling to
me, and the clouds in these cards are always present - conveying that "out
of nowhere" feeling of magic and wonder.
If you let your dreaming mind loose to wander about in the realms of
clouds, you're going to be saturated with loads of potential. BTW: Don't let
your analytical mind loose there - it will only find hydrogen and oxygen
particles! Our rational minds have no use for clouds - it is our intuitive
perception that is truly in its element (why else would such a cliché like:
"his/her head is in the clouds" be so fitting for a dreamer?). The
solumnus (relaxed, dreaming) mind will find deep potential hiding in those puffy
pretties in the sky.
To
the subconscious, cloud meanings are replete with:
Mysteries waiting to be explored.
Deeper symbolism ripe for the picking.
Cushy playgrounds exclusively designed for
creative play/function.
Another consistency of clouds in the Tarot cards: They are predominantly
seen in the suit of swords. This suit corresponds to the element of air which
maintains esoteric symbolism of: Thought, Intellect and matters of the Mind. In
this light, cloud meaning is clear even in the midst of foggy imagery. We have
all experienced a "dark cloud of thought" looming overhead. Often, it
is the landscape of our thoughts that make or break our overall demeanor.
We see some disheartening and dark imagery in the sword suit. It all
boils down to errant thinking. Clouds, in this case often symbolize a harboring
or accumulation of crumby beliefs/thought systems.
On the brighter side, there are other cards featuring full-flavored fun,
hope and inspiration with clouds puffing happily in view (check the Lovers
out). I like to think the bright side of these cloud meanings is an oracle, or
a presence of divine communication.
There is a symbolic language spoken in all things, including
airy-ephemeral clouds. It is our perception of them within the context of the
environment that formulates translation.
I
hope these thoughts on cloud meaning in the Tarot has
stirred inner circulation and inspired you to new perceptions about those
rolling beauties in the cards.
