card to guide you to the most significant Major that you need in

for him at the forefront of your mind.
shuffling, take your Major Arcana bundle, face down, and lay down

Wands.
two cards together help you with your issue?
example:
stale relationship and a need for break-through:
The Lady looks, despite being surrounded by such luxury and
fecundity. The harvest necessitates the cutting of the wheat, the picking of the fruit; the
arrival of the baby heralds the end of her pregnancy. She is brooding
the losses that come with creation.
woman wears the same pensive expression and she too looks materially
comfortable. Her hawk is held on the glove. In order for it to fly
free, she has to let it go.
King of Wands has chosen to act as a bridge tell me that in order to
effect a break through, the sitter has to work on two things to make
the necessary break through.
- If comfort is
paramount, then the sitter must be prepared to accept the necessary losses and
restrictions in order to keep comfortable. - If, however, the sitter
wishes the bird to fly freely, then some discomfort and uncertainty
must be endured in order to create something new and better.

The Tarot’s Court Cards are my specialist area. They talk to me.
Not LITERALLY though ….

What if the King of wands is the last card in the bundle? The Justice followed him in the Major Arcana, but he was at the bottom of the Minor, so I guess this means no bridge 🙂

No – just think of your bundle as a circle, not a pile and the card on the top will be the one that comes after the King of Wands 🙂
