The Aces are the first in the number series of the Minor Arcana. They can be read as number one in the tarot. As such, the Aces represent raw potential and possibility. They are the new beginning, the open road, the promise of a new story.

Yet, with most possibilities, it is about taking action once you know the energy for something is there. If you don’t nourish it or make the move, the potential will dissipate. So when the Aces appear in a reading, it is always a positive sign, so long as you’re willing to act on that energy.
