3804) "The JUDGEMENT", Tarot Cards, Niue Island: The Twentieth $2 (Two Dollars) Coin Card in the Major Arcana released by the New Zealand Mint on behalf of Niue Island: Year of Coin issue: 2025:
The "Judgement" Tarot Card, typically depicted
with figures rising from graves and an angel blowing a trumpet, represents a
significant moment of renewal, transformation, and spiritual awakening,
signifying a time to face past actions and move on to a new chapter in life,
often associated with a "call to action" or a new beginning; it can
also symbolise a period of self-reflection and reckoning with one's choices.
Tarot decks first appeared in Italy in the 1430s, and unlike regular card decks that number 52 cards consisting of four suits; Spades, Clubs, Diamonds, and Hearts; Tarot card decks have a five suit, - Swords (representing the Air Element), "Wands" (representing the Fire element), "Cups" (representing the Water Element), "Pentacles" (Representing the Coins or the material/ground element).
There is also the "Major Arcana" (Major Secrets), of 21 specially illustrated cards called “Triumphs” and an odd card called “The Fool.” (The Major Arcana represents the Fool's journey in Life).
"The JUDGEMENT" is the Nineteenth card in the Major Arcana (and the Twentieth Card in a Tarot Deck).
