Lecture with Z. Mann Zilla
Leaders & Teachers: The History & Symbolism Of Arcanas I-V
Saturday, June 13, 2026
10:00 AM Pacific | 1:00 PM Eastern | 19:00 CET
The first five Major Arcana represent teachers and authority figures: Magician, High Priestess, Empress, Emperor, and Hierophant. However, there is some debate as to whether the Magician or the Hierophant represents the best teacher-figure.
Z. Mann Zilla explains both sides of this debate, in this deep-dive into The Quadrants Of Power. Learn about the four types of leadership, the difference between "education" & "recontextualization", and the messages these subtle but profound differences can bring to your readings.
