THE CONSULTANT.
When coming out in an upright position, in the body of the deal designates merely the person consulting the oracle, in a natural state of mind.
When the card comes out in the deal reversed, it denotes the consultant to be in a disturbed state of mind, or annoyed from some cause beyond his or her control. Coming with the _eight of spades reversed_, for example, by its side, it shows that the consultant's mind has been disordered through prospects of ambition or religious excitement. If accompanied by the _eight of hearts_, it demonstrates that he or she is annoyed through being a victim to the tender pa.s.sion.
DICTIONARY OF SECONDARY DEFINITIONS
_And Synonyms, Supplementing the Preceding List. Consult Both._
KING OF DIAMONDS--_Upright._ This card, when used as a representative, denotes a very fair man, one with auburn hair, light blue eyes, and florid complexion, who, notwithstanding his hasty temper, will treasure his anger, long awaiting opportunities for revenge, or he is obstinate in his resolutions.
It moreover designates a military officer, and frequently one of fidelity to his country and its honor.
Still, it is most generally employed as the marriage card, for if it does not come out in an oracle wherein matrimony is the wish, the nuptials will be delayed or broken off.
Its synonymical signification would then be:
Alliance; reunion; attachment; vow; oath; intimacy; a.s.semblage; junction; union; chain; peace; accord; harmony; good understanding; reconciliation.
KING OF DIAMONDS--_Reversed._ This card signifies a country gentleman, in which capacity its synonyms are:
Country man; rustic; villager; peasant; farm laborer; cultivator; rural; agriculture.
