HOW TO DEAL AND READ THE CARDS

9 32 3 16 31 5 30 22 12 4 24 28 29 13 1 2 19 21 20 15 33 18 23 34 14 10 25 27 17 35 26 11 8 6 7 36

First shuffle the cards, and cut them with the left hand. Proceed to deal them out, one by one, in four successive rows of eight cards each, the cards in each row being laid from left to right; the remaining four cards are then laid In the same manner, under the middle of the other rows. In the diagram here given the cards have been laid out for a lady – that is card No. 29 is the point from which the meaning of the other cards must be deduced.

The way for a woman who is telling her fortune to read this layout is as follows, the solution being given by Philippe, heir of the famous Mlle. Le Normand: “The Sun, No. 31, which is placed above your head, assures you of a lasting happiness, because the Star, No. 16, which is on your right, shines on you. Through it all your enterprises have been successful, and by it you have been happy in your marriage. Your husband, No. 28, who is at your right, testifies to your virtue, which is affirmed by the child, No. 13, which is at your left. The Lilies and Flowers, which overshadow you in Nos. 30 and 9, are proofs of your good deeds. Fate also employs the Cavalier, No. 1, to speak in your praise, and to give the news of it to your true friends. Your good and benevolent actions, confirmed by the cards Nos. 2, 3, 24, 4, 5, 32, 27, 18, 26, 21, 20, 15 and 34, which surround you, are additional proofs of your future happiness. Your united forces have protected you hitherto in spite of the calumnies which should injure you, which proves triumphantly, that virtue always overcomes the intrigues of the bad. Your happiness, however, has been troubled for a short while by envious spirits, which endeavored to injure you; they are represented by Nos. 14, 12, 35 and 23, which have done everything they could to ruin you, but their calumnies were rebuked by public opinion, which was on your side. The Tower, No. 19, promises you a happy old age as a recompense for your courage in bearing up under these sights.

“You have vanquished No. 11, which had sown the seed of discord In your household. No. 17, tells you that you will soon change your place of residence; No. 10, it is true, is a sign of mischief, but you will overcome it by the moans of No. 25, aided by the Key, No. 33, which is placed at your feet. In general, everything disagreeable will remain far from you, because its harbingers, the coffin, the clouds, the terrible serpent and the dangerous cross represented in Nos. 8,6,7 and 36, are far distant from you, and cannot reach you for a long time. Providence has sealed your happiness, and henceforth you will enjoy the recompense of your virtue, in spite of a vicious, corrupted world; always trust in Providence and He will never forsake you.
