Symbolic Flag Meaning in Tarot
What do flags do? They signal. Announce. Proclaim. They wave and snap in
our vision as an unmistakable proclamation. What's the message? Depends on the
flag.
We see the flag flailing most obviously in the Tarot through the windows
of the Death, Sun and Judgment cards. A fitting trinity. Feels like a
resurrection-esque to me. Take a moment to look at these three cards, and you
might get the same impression: An announcement of revolutionary transition.
I think that's why the flags of the Tarot of flying high. I think they
signal the evolution of the human soul. I think they flag down the victory of
human's victory over limitation and captivities of all kind.
Flag
meaning in the Tarot asks these questions:
Where does your patriotism reside?
What territory are you staking for your
own?
What important news do you have to
proclaim?
To what are you wanting to draw other's
attention?
Consider the flag meaning in the
Death card. Traditionally, it's a black flag with a white segmented rose.
Usually the rose is shown with five segments. It's a standardized icon seen in
Arthurian, Rosicrucian, Alchemical and Golden Dawn circles to name a few. The
five petals announce natural order. White is symbolic of purification. You can
take a look at Rose symbolism in Tarot, but this flag in the Death card waves
meanings of the natural cycles of life, rebirth, evolution.
The red flag waving in the Sun card signals a time of vitality. The child
reborn proclaims freedom of self-expression and the flag is a symbol of the
importance of being consumed by the warmth of enthusiasm. The flag in this card
is a tribute to life reclaimed.
The equal-armed cross in the Judgment card announces restored balance.
The equal-armed cross is symbolic of the foundational pillars of cosmic order:
The cardinal direction, the four elements, the four observable stages of life
(birth, childhood, adulthood, death) and the completion of a cycle therein.
These are just a few representations the cross represents. The red of the cross
(in the Rider-Waite version) is symbolic of sacrifice (of a spiritual Christly-kind,
and/or the marks we endure as we daily give ourselves over to the
life-exchanging process of existence). The white background of the flag is a
promise of our cleanliness through this exchange - purity.
When the flags of the Tarot raise the pole of your awareness, take some
time to consider your announcements (to yourself and the world around you).
