 | The card on the far right represents the object being viewed, be it an idea, relationship, or the self. Five of Staves (Strife), when reversed: A cautious step ahead without the aid of others. |
 | The card second from the right represents the physical vision: how the object is seen at a base or mechanical level. Six of Staves (Victory), when reversed: Fear of failure and fear of success. |
 | The card in the middle represents the mental vision: the object personified and seen through a humanized perspective. Three of Staves (Virtue): Achievement attained after a long chase. A rare and glowing prize. |
 | The card second from the left represents the emotional vision: how passions and values are creatively stimulated by the mental vision. Ten of Swords (Ruin): Calamity. The failure of a hero, foretold in prophesy, but brought about by the hero's own choices. |
 | 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. Death, when reversed: Death averted. Brush with danger. Rising from a deathlike sleep. |
