Alright, let me tell you how I tackled the tarot card division crossword clue. First off, I started by getting the crossword puzzle in front of me. I stared at that clue about tarot card division, and it was like a riddle that just wouldn’t click right away.
I remembered that tarot cards have all sorts of meanings and terms. So, I grabbed an old tarot card deck I had lying around. I shuffled those cards a bit, not because I thought it’d help with the crossword directly, but it got me in the tarot mood. Then I started flipping through the cards, looking at the names and symbols on them.
I made a list on a piece of paper of all the common tarot – related words I could think of. Words like “major arcana”, “minor arcana”, “suit”, and “court cards”. I knew the clue was about division, so I was trying to figure out how these tarot elements could be divided.
Next, I turned to the internet, not to look for the answer directly, but to read up on how tarot decks are structured. I found out that the major arcana has 22 cards and the minor arcana has 56 cards. And the minor arcana is further divided into four suits: cups, swords, wands, and pentacles. Each suit has 14 cards.
I went back to the crossword clue and started trying to fit these terms in. I tried different combinations, thinking about how the word lengths in the crossword matched up with the tarot terms. After a while, I hit a wall. It just wouldn’t work.
Then I had an idea. I decided to break the clue into smaller parts. I focused on the key words in the clue related to division. I thought about how the tarot deck is divided into big groups and then into smaller ones. I realized that maybe the answer was related to how the suits are a division within the minor arcana.
I started writing down the names of the suits again and checked the crossword spaces. And guess what? One of the suit names fit perfectly! It was a eureka moment. I filled in that part of the crossword, and then the other connected clues started to make sense too.
Finally, I double – checked my work. I looked at all the filled – in words in the crossword and made sure they made sense in relation to the other clues. And there it was, I had solved the tarot card division crossword clue! It was a fun process that involved a lot of thinking, a bit of research, and a whole lot of trial and error.
