The Aces in the Tarot are cards of potential – potential to work with the energy that is inherent in each of the suits. Aces indicate new beginnings, opportunities that are coming to the Seeker, and the pure energy of each element.

The Ace of Wands carries the elemental energy of Fire. It is all about career, creativity, passion, mindfulness and will. It is the desire for self-growth. The flip side of this Ace shows the Seeker experiencing delays, lack of opportunity, frustration, feeling powerless and power struggles.

The Ace of Cups carries the elemental energy of Water. It is all about intuition, emotions, love and relationship, emotional connections, nurturing and socializing. The flip side of this Ace shows a lack of connection with ones emotions, love that is not reciprocated, lack of love, feelings of insecurity, and not trusting ones intuition.

The Ace of Swords carries the elemental energy of Air. It is all about communications, mental focus, analysis, getting to the truth of an issue, and the use of logical, rational thinking. The flip side of this Ace shows misplaced aggression, lack of logic, a pessimistic attitude, loss of power, and an unwillingness to stand up for ones self, or to fight,

The Ace of Pentacles carries the elemental energy of Earth, It is all about the physical plane, material issues, work, grounding of energy, finances, home, family and resources. The flip side of this Ace shows greed, hoarding, fear of loss, money being paid out, mistrust of opportunities and too much attention to the material things of life.

Always remember that these are cards of potential. To activate their potential, the Seeker needs to take some form of action. The more informed and focused their actions, the better the manner in which the energy will manifest in their lives.

Build it, and they will come!
