TAROVERIE / COLORS

Tarot colors

Color is one part of a card’s visual language. Find the color first, then read the object, gesture and surrounding scene.

These nine entries compare colors in the Rider–Waite–Smith deck. Associations vary by deck, tradition and printing; a color alone is not a prediction.

WHEAT

Wheat

Growth · Nourishment

Dense wheat occupies the foreground of the Empress, below the figure and trees. Nourishment has a material ground rather than an empty decorative background.

Grain connects growth with food and the conditions of harvest. It can support a reading of care, but guarantees neither wealth, fertility, nor health. Those questions require real information.

APPEARS IN · PUBLISHED CARD CONTEXTS

The Empress

Dense wheat occupies the foreground of the Empress, below the figure and trees. Nourishment has a material ground rather than an empty decorative background. Crops join clothing, trees, and water in a rich setting. Standing wheat is not an already gathered harvest. Abundance should not hide the labour of cultivation and distribution.

Hotspots come from this published card; never transplanted onto another deck.
