The Equinox (Volume I, Number VIII)

THE EQUINOX 2. Cut each pack again to the left. 3. These four stacks represent I H V H, from right to left, 4. Find the Significator. If it be in the ‘ pack, the question refers to work, business, etc; if in the?הpack, to love, marriage, or pleasure; if in the?וpack, to trouble, loss, scandal, quarrelling, etc.; if in the 1.?.־pack, to money, goods, and such purely material matters. 5. Tell the 911616111 what he has come for: if wrong, abandon the divination 6. If right, spread out the pack containing the Significator, face upwards. Count the cards from him, in the direction in which he faces. The counting should include the card from which you count. For Knights, Queens and Princes, count 4. For Princesses, count 7. For Aces, count 11. For small cards, count according to the number. For trumps, count 3 {or the elemental trumps; 9 for the planetary trumps; 12 for the Zodiacal trumps. Make a " story" of these cards. This story is that of the beginning of the affair. 7. Pair the cards on either side of the Significator, then those outside them, and so on. Make another “ story," which should fill in the details omitted in the first. 8. If this story is not quite accurate, do not be dis- couraged. Perhaps the Querent himself does not know everything. But the main lines ought to be laid down firmly, with correctness, or the divination should be abandoned. 208
