Tarot and elements recommendation

Sparkles1234

Hey guys! I am looking for books that elaborate on the elements with regards to tarot suits. I know tid bits but want to learn them in depth. Any recommendations please?

I don't own this one yet, but it's been highly recommended here. It appears to cover a range of correspondences, including elemental associations and dignities. I would look for a book that stays with the usual arrangement of Wands = Fire, Cups = Water, Swords = Air and Pentacles = Earth, since that's how you're likely to encounter it in general use. Some tarot writers and deck creators have tried to swap things around for their own reasons, but I see it as a case of "If it ain't broke, don't fix it."

I will look it up. Yes I too want the usual arrangements and not the swapped ones because it will only confuse me. Thank you very much for your valuable input!

I also recommend Tarot Decoded. It's very unique and inspiring!

Also, Anthony Louis's "Tarot Beyond the Basics" and Catherine Chapman's Tarot Elements blog, which offers an in-depth tutorial on elemental dignities.
