The Aces of the four suits, (Wands, Cups, Swords, Pentacles) represent new beginnings and opportunities according to their own elements, showing us what is the nature of the new opportunity. In a
Tarot Spread depending on their dignity (their exact placement) Aces always show "where" and in "which area of life" will these opportunities present themselves.
There is always the "out of the clear blue sky" feel with the Ace cards, as the opportunities they show are never the consequences of our previous actions, these are really new and unexpected beginnings. Aces are extremely bound by their elements, so the Ace of Wand will always represent an initiative force relating to passions, as its element is Fire.

All the Ace Cards relate numerically to the 10 cards, especially if the 10 card in the Spread happens to be the same suit as the Ace. Of the Major Arcana, The Magician I (1), the Wheel of Fortune X (10 1+0=1) and The Sun XIX (19 1+9=10 1+0=1) relate to the Aces.

| The Wheel of Fortune X foretells and supports the new beginning of the Aces of the four Suits |
 |
| The Sun XIX ensures the viability of the new beginning shown by any of the Aces in a Tarot Spread |
