2.8 THE MYSTIC CROSS
This is a brief but sometimes pointed method of prognostication that should be interpreted strictly in terms of the consultant’s own interests in order to be most effective. Don’t expect the cards to come up with something totally out of character, but count on them to answer something close at hand or already in mind.
2.7 TRIPLE NINES
This is a very intriguing form of card consultation, requiring three deals, which some cartomancers interpret in terms of past, present, and future, but which can be made into a general reading quite as effectively. This, as with all such auguries, depends much on the mood of the consultant and whatever questions he or she may want answered.
Briefly, the pack is dealt into five rows of face-up cards, nine to each, with an added row of seven. The consultant’s appropriate card, which is decided upon beforehand, is then located and a count begun from it, toward the right of the row in which it appears. Reaching the end of that row, you move to the row below and continue the count to the left.
