Answer 1

The correct answer is A) Fool, Magician, as the 4 aces in the minor arcana symbolize the Fool's knapsack and the Magician's tools, highlighting a connection between these major arcana cards and the aces.

Step-by-step explanation:

The 4 aces in the minor arcana are symbolic representations of the knapsack the Fool carries, and also the tools the Magician displays in the major arcana of the tarot. There is a CONNECTION between the aces and the above two major arcana cards, which is answer A) Fool, Magician. The Fool's journey begins with the literal and metaphorical baggage that he carries, often depicted as a small sack or knapsack containing all the potential of the four elements (earth, air, fire, water), which are represented in the minor arcana by the four suits (pentacles, swords, wands, and cups). The Magician represents the active use of these elements or tools, which he skillfully manipulates on his table, as seen in most traditional Rider-Waite-Smith deck imagery.
