 | The card at the top left represents how you see yourself. Queen of Swords: A person of sharp insight, persuasive, powerful and thorough. If extroverted, an administrator, an organizer, a firebrand, splendid as a summer's day - and sometimes as overwhelming. If introverted, a person of deep sentiment, susceptible to flights of ecstasy, of the flames of inner torment. |
 | The card at the top right represents how you see your partner. The Hermit: Introspection. Retreat. Pilgrimage. Spiritual quest. The search in oneself and in the world for the "Honest Man" of Diogenes the philosopher. Meditation on the passage of time and the dissolution of matter. |
 | The card in the center left represents how you feel about your partner. King of Cups, when reversed: An ineffectual, unsteady person, talented but emotionally at sea. |
 | The card in the center right represents what stands between you and your partner. Three of Staves (Virtue): Achievement attained after a long chase. A rare and glowing prize. |
 | The card in the lower left represents how your partner sees you. Wheel of Fortune: The intrusion of chance into affairs. Unlikely coincidence. "What goes up, must come down." The intercession of good fortune in life. A sudden opportunity that must be exploited deftly and promptly; according to Machiavelli, in The Prince, Fortune is "bald behind", that is, once she runs past, it will be too late to grab her, and so she must be seized as she approaches, "by the forelock". |
 | The card in the lower right represents what your partner feels about you. King of Coins, when reversed: If intelligent, one susceptible to the influence of the child of Saturn, Accidia, the inertia and melancholy of the philosophers. If conventional, then an avarice and greedy person preoccupied with money, with an idolatrous faith in the exploitation of the earth and a distrust of nature. |
 | The card in the center represents the present status or challenge of the relationship. Three of Swords (Sorrow), when reversed: Balance of forces in conflict. Rest from struggle. |
