The four letters

One row of four runs through the whole deck: the letters of the Name, the elements, the suits, the ranks and the worlds.

Ten spheres and twenty-two paths. The spheres are the numbers one to ten, and so the small cards; the paths are the trumps. Choose a sphere or a path to open its page.

Sphere colours are the Queen scale. The same Tree with numbers and the lightning flash is under Numerology.

Read the wheel from the outside in: court card arcs (20° of one sign to 20° of the next), the twelve signs with their trumps, the thirty-six decans with the ruling planet, the small card's number and its title, the dates, and the quadrants ruled by the Aces and Princesses. Colour marks the element: Wands (Fire) Cups (Water) Swords (Air) Disks (Earth). Every segment is a link.
