Cups are assumed to represent people with light brown hair and of fair complexion; Wands those having yellow or red hair and blue eyes; Swords correspond to persons with dark brown hair and possibly grey, hazel or even blue eyes; Pentacles answer to very dark people.
Select the Significator of the person or thing about whom or which the inquiry is made; it is that card which, in the operator's judgment or experience, is the most representative, and is not, therefore, of necessity the Magician or High Priestess mentioned in the official divinatory meanings. Place the Significator in the middle.
Seven of Pentacles (Reversed)
A young man, leaning on his staff, looks intently at seven pentacles attached to a clump of greenery on his right; one would say that these were his treasures and that his heart was there.
Divinatory meanings: Anxiety about money.
Let the operator and Querent shuffle and cut three times each.
Turn up the FIRST CARD; cover the Significator therewith, and say; That covers him. This is the person or thing's general environment at the time, the influence with which he is actuated all through.

Turn up the THIRD CARD; place it above the head of the Significator, and say: This crowns him. It represents (a) the best that he can arrive at, or (b) his ideal in the matter; (c) what he wants to make his own; (d) but it is not his own at present.
Two of Cups (Reversed)
A youth and maiden are pledging one another, and above their cups rises the caduceus of Hermes, between the great wings of which there appears a lion's head. It is a variant of a sign which is found in some old examples of this card. Some curious meanings are attached to it, but they do not concern us in this place.
Divinatory meanings: False love, folly, misunderstanding.
Turn up the FOURTH CARD; place it below the feet of the Significator, and say: This is beneath him. It is his own - that which he has to work with and can use.
Ace of Swords (Reversed)
A hand issues from a cloud, grasping a sword, the point of which is encircled by a crown.
Divinatory meanings: The same, but the results are disastrous; another account says conception, childbirth, augmentation, multiplicity.
Turn up the FIFTH CARD; place it on the side that the Significator is looking away from, and say: This is behind him. It is the current from which he is passing away, and it may be the past of the matter.
King of Swords (Reversed)
He sits in judgment, holding the unsheathed sign of his suit.
Divinatory meanings: Cruelty, perversity, barbarity, perfidy, evil intention.

THE FOURTH represents what will come. It is on this card that you concentrate your intuitive powers, your experience and your memory in respect of the official divinatory meanings attached thereto. It should include whatsoever you may have divined from the other cards on the table, including the Significator itself and concerning him or it.
Ace of Cups (Reversed)
The waters are beneath and thereon are water-lilies; the hand issues from the cloud, holding in its palm the cup, from which four streams are pouring; a dove, bearing in its bill a cross-marked host, descends to place the wafer in the cup; the dew of water is falling on all sides. It is an intimation of that which may lie behind the Lesser Arcana.
Divinatory meanings: House of the false heart, mutation, instability, revolution.
