	The card in the center represents the attitude you assume. The Hierophant: The abstract, spiritual and intellectual side of the animus, or masculine nature of the soul. Spiritual authority. Religious tradition. Avuncular wisdom. The old order and the old school.
	The card to the right represents the thoughts and feelings that underly your attitudes. The Sun, when reversed: Poignance of dusk. Twilight shadows. Nostalgia. Haunting memories.
	The card at the top represents how your attitude is evolving and will evolve in the future. Seven of Coins (Assessment), when reversed: Unwise decision. Stagnation.
	The card to the left represents how others perceive your attitude. King of Staves, when reversed: Talent turned to pomposity. Complacency. Egocentricity. Provincial attitude. Sophistry which masks lack of principle of conviction.
	The card at the bottom represents what you cannot confront or are hiding from yourself. The Magician: Mastery of words and of matter. Eloquence, including eloquent silence and Hermetic wisdom. Mediator, messenger, and communicator. The Magician may be a sage or just a quick talker. He is a master-manipulator of the material world, but the miracles he effects may be true physical and metaphysical transformation of mere illusion and technical tricks. With Hermes, one never knows; he is the god of orators and liars, merchants and thieves, trickery and arcane science.
