 | The card on the far right represents the object being viewed, be it an idea, relationship, or the self. Ace of Staves: Creativity. Change. Success in new undertakings. "A breath of fresh air." "New blood." The sanguine temperament of the Ace promotes experiment, reform and appreciation of beauty, both of people and of nature. |
 | The card second from the right represents the physical vision: how the object is seen at a base or mechanical level. Two of Cups (Love): The flower of first love, of love at first sight. The bond between two people, invisible but formidable. |
 | The card in the middle represents the mental vision: the object personified and seen through a humanized perspective. Seven of Cups (Temptation): Living in a world of fantasy and illusion. Unrealistic and vain hopes. Dependence on external and even supernatural aid. |
 | The card second from the left represents the emotional vision: how passions and values are creatively stimulated by the mental vision. Six of Staves (Victory): Triumph over great difficulties. A glorious victory. "If at first you don't succeed, try, try again." |
 | 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 Coins (Wealth), when reversed: Risk. Future in doubt. Gambling with one's well being. |
