They are decisive and confident, but they are ruled by rational, analytical thinking and they don't understand how others can be governed by their feelings. They like to be in control of any situation, but because of their disciplined and critical nature, they can seem detached and aloof.

Which of these fits your personality? Recognising your Tarot suit can help you to learn Tarot more easily, because different types of people learn in different ways.
If you are a Cups personality who uses feelings, you could look at the relationships between the cards. Take time to lay the cards from each suit out in rows, so you can see which cards are next to each other. Look for, or create a romantic story which weaves its way through each suit.
Most Pentacles people are more disciplined and methodical, and you would like to use common sense in your approach to the Tarot. Start at the beginning of a good Tarot book and steadily work your way through it, doing the exercises as you go.
If you are a Swords individual, then you are a thinker. You will want to use reason and logic to learn the cards. After you have thought about all of the principles involved, then you can deal out some cards and attempt a reading.
A Wands person seeks adventure and gets bored quickly. If that's you, then you'll find yourself skipping from one Tarot book to another as your mood takes you. This will be your way of learning Tarot.
We're all different, but our basic nature can be summed up as the qualities of one of the Tarot's suits. Discovering your suit means you can approach the learning of Tarot in a way that is appropriate for your personality.
