You don't really need to use the minor arcana. You can do a perfectly good reading using only the major arcana. In fact, there are some schools of thought which doubt that the minor arcana was even a part of the original tarot deck, but perhaps added at a later date from some other prognostication source. In a reading, the major arcana represents states of being -- your mental, emotional, a/o spiritual condition in terms of the situation you are attempting to read. The minor arcana describes events or situations, each suit focusing on a different area of your life. So print away, if you like the deck.
