 | The card on the far right represents the object being viewed, be it an idea, relationship, or the self. Ace of Staves, when reversed: A beginning that is faulty from lack of conviction or from an excess of complacency. |
 | The card second from the right represents the physical vision: how the object is seen at a base or mechanical level. Ace of Coins: Prosperity. Security. Well-being. Material riches and spiritual richness. |
 | The card in the middle represents the mental vision: the object personified and seen through a humanized perspective. Four of Staves (Completion): Calm, pleasurable and perhaps amorous interlude. A playful balance of opposites, like the exchange made by Herakles and Queen Omphale. |
 | The card second from the left represents the emotional vision: how passions and values are creatively stimulated by the mental vision. Queen of Cups, when reversed: A melodramatic scene stealer. A sentimental hypochondriac. A person prey to wild and shifting emotional fancies. |
 | The card on the far left represents the fourfold or mystical vision: still viewing through the previous three, we now add a spiritual element, revealing unseen aspects of the object. Four of Cups (Luxury), when reversed: New faith. New hope. A return to trust. |
