 | The card at the top left represents how you see yourself. The Fool: The personality in the primal state, the willful child in all of us. Instinct. Innocence. Impulsive actions. Setting off in a new direction in life. Liberation of the impulses. Insight and wit from instinct rather than instruction. |
 | The card at the top right represents how you see your partner. King of Cups, when reversed: An ineffectual, unsteady person, talented but emotionally at sea. |
 | The card in the center left represents how you feel about your partner. The Hanged Man, when reversed: Masochism. Self-imposed confinement. Potential release from bondage. |
 | The card in the center right represents what stands between you and your partner. Wheel of Fortune, when reversed: Inauspicious atmosphere. Strange omens. Dark auguries. |
 | The card in the lower left represents how your partner sees you. Queen of Staves, when reversed: A dilettante. An impatient or jaded connoisseur. A superficial or pretentious person. A frustrated artist. |
 | The card in the lower right represents what your partner feels about you. 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. |
 | The card in the center represents the present status or challenge of the relationship. Knight of Cups: A person of turbulent, poetic, romantic cast. An opportunity or favorable event in the near future. Deep feeling transformed into verse, music or visions. |
