This Covers You
This card gives the influence which is affecting the person or matter of inquiry generally, the atmosphere of it in which the other currents work.
Eight of Cups from the Marseilles Pattern Tarot Deck
A. E. Waite's Secondary Meanings
Marriage with a fair woman.
This Crosses You
It shows the nature of the obstacles in the matter. If it is a favourable card, the opposing forces will not be serious, or it may indicate that something good in itself will not be productive of good in the particular connexion.
Temperance from the Marseilles Pattern Tarot Deck
A. E. Waite's Secondary Meanings
Temperance. The winged figure of a female--who, in opposition to all doctrine concerning the hierarchy of angels, is usually allocated to this order of ministering spirits--is pouring liquid from one pitcher to another. In his last work on the Tarot, Dr. Papus abandons the traditional form and depicts a woman wearing an Egyptian head-dress. The first thing which seems clear on the surface is that the entire symbol has no especial connexion with Temperance, and the fact that this designation has always obtained for the card offers a very obvious instance of a meaning behind meaning, which is the title in chief to consideration in respect of the Tarot as a whole.
This Crowns You
It represents (a) the Querent's aim or ideal in the matter; (b) the best that can be achieved under the circumstances, but that which has not yet been made actual.
Eight of Swords from the Marseilles Pattern Tarot Deck
A. E. Waite's Secondary Meanings
For a woman, scandal spread in her respect.
This is Beneath You
It shows the foundation or basis of the matter, that which has already passed into actuality and which the Significator has made his own.
Two of Coins from the Marseilles Pattern Tarot Deck
Card Meaning When Reversed
A. E. Waite's Secondary Meanings
Bad omen, ignorance, injustice.
This is Behind You
It gives the influence that is just passed, or is now passing away.
Death from the Marseilles Pattern Tarot Deck
A. E. Waite's Secondary Meanings (When Upright)
Death. The method of presentation is almost invariable, and embodies a bourgeois form of symbolism. The scene is the field of life, and amidst ordinary rank vegetation there are living arms and heads protruding from the ground. One of the heads is crowned, and a skeleton with a great scythe is in the act of mowing it. The transparent and unescapable meaning is death, but the alternatives allocated to the symbol are change and transformation. Other heads have been swept from their place previously, but it is, in its current and patent meaning, more especially a card of the death of Kings. In the exotic sense it has been said to signify the ascent of the spirit in the divine spheres, creation and destruction, perpetual movement, and so forth.
This is Before You
It shows the influence that is coming into action and will operate in the near future.
Three of Swords from the Marseilles Pattern Tarot Deck
A. E. Waite's Secondary Meanings
For a woman, the flight of her lover.
Your Self
Signifies the person or thing about which the question has been asked, and shows its position or attitude in the circumstances.
The Lovers from the Marseilles Pattern Tarot Deck
A. E. Waite's Secondary Meanings
The Lovers or Marriage. This symbol has undergone many variations, as might be expected from its subject. In the eighteenth century form, by which it first became known to the world of archaeological research, it is really a card of married life, shewing father and mother, with their child placed between them; and the pagan Cupid above, in the act of flying his shaft, is, of course, a misapplied emblem. The Cupid is of love beginning rather than of love in its fulness, guarding the fruit thereof. The card is said to have been entitled Simulacyum fidei, the symbol of conjugal faith, for which the rainbow as a sign of the covenant would have been a more appropriate concomitant. The figures are also held to have signified Truth, Honour and Love, but I suspect that this was, so to speak, the gloss of a commentator moralizing. It has these, but it has other and higher aspects.
Your House
Your environment and the tendencies at work therein which have an effect on the matter €”for instance, your position in life, the influence of immediate friends, and so forth.
Nine of Clubs from the Marseilles Pattern Tarot Deck
A. E. Waite's Secondary Meanings
Generally speaking, a bad card.
Your Hopes and Fears
The Sun from the Marseilles Pattern Tarot Deck
A. E. Waite's Secondary Meanings (When Upright)
The Sun. The luminary is distinguished in older cards by chief rays that are waved and salient alternately and by secondary salient rays. It appears to shed its influence on earth not only by light and heat, but--like the moon--by drops of dew. Court de Gebelin termed these tears of gold and of pearl, just as he identified the lunar dew with the tears of Isis. Beneath the dog-star there is a wall suggesting an enclosure-as it might be, a walled garden-wherein are two children, either naked or lightly clothed, facing a water, and gambolling, or running hand in hand. Eliphas Levi says that these are sometimes replaced by a spinner unwinding destinies, and otherwise by a much better symbol-a naked child mounted on a white horse and displaying a scarlet standard.
The Final Result
The culmination which is brought about by the influences shewn by the other cards that have been turned up in the divination.
Two of Clubs from the Marseilles Pattern Tarot Deck
A. E. Waite's Secondary Meanings (When Upright)
A young lady may expect trivial disappointments.
