I thought we might have a look today at Tarot cards associated with medical issues. NOTE: Just because these cards turn up in a reading does NOT mean you have a medical condition. As I keep on saying, there are 50 shades of Tarot, 50 possible meanings (or thereabouts), for each card. Please take the following with a large grain of salt. Some I’m sure of. Others are educated guesses.

Nine Of Wands: Possibly wounded. Especially in battle.

Ten Of Wands: Back problems. Mania.

Page Of Wands: Burns

Four Of Cups: Chronic fatigue.

Five Of Cups: Depression

Six Of Cups: Delusional. Hallucinations.

Eight of Cups: Sleep walking.

King Of Cups: Alcoholic

Three Of Swords: Heart attack

Four Of Swords: Minor mental breakdown

Seven Of Swords: Kleptomania

Eight Of Swords: Phobia. Paranoid.

Nine Of Swords: Anxiety. Panic attacks. Possibly migraines.

Ten Of Swords: Depression. Chronic back pain. Possibly stabbing wounds.

Four Of Pentacles: Constipation

Five Of Pentacles: Leprosy. Skin disorders.

Eight Of Pentacles: O.C.D.

King Of Pentacles: Arthritis.

Temperance: Eating disorders. Possibly hormonal imbalance or any other condition caused by imbalance.

The Devil: Drug addiction. Sexual disorders.

The Tower: Accidental injury. Emergency surgery. Major mental breakdown.

The Moon: Mental illness

Death: Um, pretty obvious isn’t it. But please please please remember this is only one of many possible meanings for this card.

The Star: Hospitalisation. Recovery. Healing.

This list isn’t exhaustive or definitive. The cards that come up will vary slightly from reader to reader. Because everyone reads the cards in their own unique way. But it’s a starting point. Note: The cards might turn up reversed to indicate these conditions.
