 | The card on the far right represents the object being viewed, be it an idea, relationship, or the self. Ten of Swords (Ruin): Calamity. The failure of a hero, foretold in prophesy, but brought about by the hero's own choices. |
 | The card second from the right represents the physical vision: how the object is seen at a base or mechanical level. Knight of Coins, when reversed: Small-mindedness. Insistence on the concrete. Lack of conviction in important matters. Lack of frankness in matters of the heart. |
 | The card in the middle represents the mental vision: the object personified and seen through a humanized perspective. Nine of Swords (Cruelty): Revenge. Excessive or violent response to a problem. Jealousy. |
 | The card second from the left represents the emotional vision: how passions and values are creatively stimulated by the mental vision. Page of Coins, when reversed: An unrealistic deluded state of mind. Rationalizations. Pseudoscience. |
 | 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. Ten of Cups (Satiety): The union of love and the soul. Happiness in love. Balance in friendship. Joyful equanimity in oneself. |
