The physical and emotional nature to which this card is attributed is dark, ardent, lithe, animated, impassioned, noble. このカードの特徴は、茶髪、情熱的、しなやかさ、活気に満ちた、熱情的、 そして高潔で堂々たる姿です。 The King uplifts a flowering wand, and wears, like his three correspondences in the remaining suits, what is called a cap of maintenance beneath his crown. キングは花の咲いたワンドを持ち上げ、他のスートのキングたちと同様、 王冠の下にいわゆる保守のキャップを...

The Wands throughout this suit are always in leaf, as it is a suit of life and animation. ワンドのカードには、スート全体を通して葉っぱが描かれている。 生命と活気のスートだからである。 Emotionally and otherwise, the Queen's personality corresponds to that of the King, but is more magnetic. 感情的にもそれ以外でも、クイーンの性格はキングの性格と一致しているが、 より魅力あるものである。 　　 Divinatory Meanings: A dark woman, countrywoman, friendly, chaste, loving, honourable....

He is shewn as if upon a journey, armed with a short wand, and although mailed is not on a warlike errand. 彼は旅に出ている最中であるかのように見えます。 短いワンドで武装し、よろいを着ているが戦争に 向かっているのではありません。 　　 He is passing mounds or pyramids. 彼はマウンドやピラミッドを通り過ぎています。 The motion of the horse is a key to the character of its rider, and suggests the precipitate mood, or things connected therewith. 馬の動きが乗っている人の性格のカ...

In a scene similar to the former, a young man stands in the act of proclamation. Knight of Wandsに似ているが、若い男性が何かを宣言しようと立っている。 He is unknown but faithful, and his tidings are strange. 彼は無名だが忠実。そして彼の知らせは聞き慣れないものです。 Divinatory Meanings: Dark young man, faithful, a lover, an envoy, a postman. Beside a man, he will bear favourable testimony concerning him. A dangerous rival, if followed by the Page of Cups. Has the chief qua...

A man oppressed by the weight of the ten staves which he is carrying. この男性は自分の運んでいるさおに圧迫されている。 Divinatory Meanings: A card of many significances, and some of the readings cannot be harmonized. 　　 I set aside that which connects it with honour and good faith. The chief meaning is oppression simply, but it is also fortune, gain, any kind of success, and then it is the oppression of these things. It is also a card of false-seeming, disguise, perfidy....

The figure leans upon his staff and has an expectant look, as if awaiting an enemy. この人物は自分のさおに寄りかかって、何かを待っているような表情をしている。 まるで敵を待っているようかのようである。 Behind are eight other staves―erect, in orderly disposition, like a palisade. 背後には残りの８本のさおがある。そのさおは柵のように、直立して、順番に配置されている。 Divinatory Meanings: The card signifies strength in opposition. If attacked, the person will meet an onslaught b...

The card represents motion through the immovable－a flight of wands through an open country; but they draw to the term of their course. このカードは静止したものの中での動きを表しますー開けた土地の中をワンドが飛んでいますが、自分たちの目指すところへ向かって集まっています。 That which they signify is at hand; it may be even on the threshold. それらが意味するものは、近い将来です。 それは、もうそこまで来ているかも知れません。 Divinatory Meanings: Activity in undertakings, the ...

A young man on a craggy eminence brandishing a staff; six other staves are raised towards him from below. 若い男性がごつごつした高いところでさおを振り回している。 下からは６本のさおが彼に向かって掲げられている。 Divinatory Meanings: It is a card of valour, for, on the surface, six are attacking one, who has, however, the vantage position. On the intellectual plane, it signifies discussion, wordy strife; in business―negotiations, war of trade, barter, competition. It is fur...

A laurelled horseman bears one staff adorned with a laurel crown; footmen with staves are at his side. 月桂樹をかぶった騎手が、月桂樹の王冠で飾られた一本のさおを携えている。 さおを持った歩兵がそばにいる。 Divinatory Meanings: The card has been so designed that it can cover several significations; on the surface, it is a victor triumphing, but it is also great news, such as might be carried in state by the King's courier; it is expectation crowned with its own desire, the c...

A posse of youths, who are brandishing staves, as if in sport or strife. 若者の一団が棒を振り回しています。スポーツや争いのように。 It is mimic warfare, and hereto correspond the Divinatory Meanings: Imitation, as, for example, sham fight, but also the strenuous competition and struggle of the search after riches and fortune. それは模擬戦であり、次の占いの意味に関係しています。 In this sense it connects with the battle of life. Hence some attributions say that it is a card...

From the four great staves planted in the foreground there is a great garland suspended; two female figures uplift nosegays; at their side is a bridge over a moat, leading to an old manorial house. 前方に植えられた４本の大きな棒から、大きな花輪が吊るされています。 2人の女性が小さな花束を掲げています。 傍には、堀に架かる橋があり、領地内の家に続いています。 Divinatory Meanings: They are for once almost on the surface―country life, haven of refuge, a species of domestic harve...

A calm, stately personage, with his back turned, looking from a cliff's edge at ships passing over the sea. 穏やかな、風格のある人物が、背を向けて　崖の端から、海を通る船を見ています。 Three staves are planted in the ground, and he leans slightly on one of them. 3本の棒が地面に立てられている。そのうちの一本にわずかに寄りかかっている。 Divinatory Meanings: He symbolizes established strength, enterprise, effort, trade, commerce, discovery; those are his ships, bearing his me...

A tall man looks from a battlemented roof over sea and shore; he holds a globe in his right hand, while a staff in his left rests on the battlement; another is fixed in a ring. 背の高い男の人が、銃眼のある屋根から海岸の向こうを見ています。 彼は右手に地球を持っており、一方、左手にある棒は、銃眼の上に置かれています。 もう１本の棒は、リングに固定されています。 The Rose and Cross and Lily should be noticed on the left side. バラ十字とユリが左手にあるのがわかるはずである。 Divi...

He holds a short sceptre in his left hand and a great cup in his right; his throne is set upon the sea; on one side a ship is riding and on the other a dolphin is leaping. 彼は、左手に短い笏、右手に大きなCupを持っています。 彼の王座は海の上にある。 彼の横に船が浮かんでいる。もう片方にはいるかが跳ねている。 The implicit is that the Sign of the Cup naturally refers to water, which appears in all the court cards. ここで暗示されていることは、カップのサインは水のことを言ってい...

Beautiful, fair, dreamy―as one who sees visions in a cup. この女性は、美しくて魅力的で、カップに映った像を見ているかのように幻想にふけっている。 This is, however, only one of her aspects; she sees, but she also acts, and her activity feeds her dream. しかしこれは彼女のひとつの側面に過ぎない。 彼女は見ているだけでなく、行動もする。自分の行動で夢を満たす。 Divinatory Meanings: Good, fair woman; honest, devoted woman, who will do service to the Querent; loving intelligence, a...

Graceful, but not warlike; riding quietly, wearing a winged helmet, referring to those higher graces of the imagination which sometimes characterize this card. この人物は優雅です。 好戦的でなく、静かに馬に乗り、羽のついたヘルメットをかぶっています。 そのヘルメットは、このカードを特徴付ける 想像上の高貴な美しさのことを指しています。 He too is a dreamer, but the images of the side of sense haunt him in his vision. 彼もまた夢を追う人である。しかし、現実的な感覚も持ち合わせて...

A fair, pleasing, somewhat effeminate page, of studious and intent aspect, contemplates a fish rising from a cup to look at him. このペイジは、魅力的で、愛想の良く、いくらか柔弱です。 勉強熱心な面も持っています。 カップの中で彼のことを見ている魚を熟視しています。 It is the pictures of the mind taking form. これは、心が形になったものを表すカードです。 Divinatory Meanings: Fair young man, one impelled to render service and with whom the Querent will be connected; a studious ...

Appearance of Cups in a rainbow; it is contemplated in wonder and ecstacy by a man and woman below, evidently husband and wife. 虹の中にカップが現れています。 下にいる男女が、明らかに夫婦でありますが、 驚愕と喜悦をもって眺めています。 His right arm is about her; his left is raised upward; she raises her right arm. 彼は右腕を彼女にまわしています。 彼は左腕を上げています。 彼女は右手を上げています。 The two children dancing near them have not observed the prodigy but are hap...

A man of dejected aspect is deserting the cups of his felicity, enterprise, undertaking or previous concern. がっかりした様子の男性が幸福、計画や現在または 以前の関心を表すカップを捨てています。 Divinatory Meanings: The card speaks for itself on the surface, but other readings are entirely antithetical―giving joy, mildness, timidity, honour, modesty. In practice, it is usually found that the card shews the decline of a matter, or that a matter which has been thought to be ...

Strange chalices of vision, but the images are more especially those of the fantastic spirit. 不思議な像がカップに現れていますが、イメージは現実離れした気持ちを特に表しています。 Divinatory Meanings: Fairy favours, images of reflection, sentiment, imagination, things seen in the glass of contemplation; some attainment in these degrees, but nothing permanent or substantial is suggested. Reversed: Desire, will, determination, project. ----------------------------------------...

Children in an old garden, their cups filled with flowers. 古い庭に子供達がいて、彼女らのカップは花で満たされています。 Divinatory Meanings: A card of the past and of memories, looking back, as―for example―on childhood; happiness, enjoyment, but coming rather from the past; things that have vanished. Another reading reverses this, giving new relations, new knowledge, new environment, and then the children are disporting in an unfamiliar precinct. Reversed: The future, rene...

A dark, cloaked figure, looking sideways at three prone cups; two others stand upright behind him; a bridge is in the background, leading to a small keep or holding. 黒いマントを着た人物が、３つの倒れたカップを斜めから眺めています。 他の２つのカップは彼の背後で直立しています。 橋が背景にあり、小さな土地へつながっています。 Divanatory Meanings: It is a card of loss, but something remains over; three have been taken, but two are left; it is a card of inheritance, patrimony, ...

A young man is seated under a tree and contemplates three cups set on the grass before him; an arm issuing from a cloud offers him another cup. 男性が木の下に座って、瞑想している。彼の前にの草の上には３つのカップが置かれています。 腕が雲の中から出てきて彼にもうひとつのカップを差し出しています。 His expression notwithstanding is one of discontent with his environment. それにもかかわらず、彼の表情は自分の置かれている立場に不満を持っているものと思われます。 Divinatory Meaning...

Maidens in a garden-ground with cups uplifted, as if pledging one another. 少女たちが庭の地面でカップを掲げています。 まるでお互いに約束を交わしているかのようです。 Divinatory Meanings: The conclusion of any matter in plenty, perfection and merriment; happy issue, victory, fulfilment, solace, healing, Reversed: Expedition, dispatch, achievement, end. It signifies also the side of excess in physical enjoyment, and the pleasures of the senses. -------------------------------...

A youth and maiden are pledging one another, and above their cups rises the Caduceus of Hermes, between the great wings of which there appears a lion's head. 若者と少女がお互いに約束を交わしています。 そして、彼らのcupの上には、ヘルメスのカドケウスがあり、大きな翼の間に、ライオンの頭があります。 It is a variant of a sign which is found in a few old examples of this card. このカードのいくつかの古い前例に見られる変形です。 Some curious emblematical meanings are attached to i...

The waters are beneath, and thereon are water-lilies; the hand issues from the cloud, holding in its palm the cup, from which four streams are pouring; a dove, bearing in its bill a cross-marked Host, descends to place the Wafer in the Cup; the dew of water is falling on all sides. 水が下の方にあり、その上に睡蓮があります。 雲の中から手が出ています。 その手の平にはカップがあります。 そのカップの中から４つ水の流れが出ています。 ハトがくちばしに十字の印の付いたホスティアをカ...

He sits in judgment, holding the unsheathed sign of his suit. 彼は判決を下す人です。 さやから抜いた彼のスートの印を手にしています。 He recalls, of course, the conventional Symbol of Justice in the Trumps Major, and he may represent this virtue, but he is rather the power of life and death, in virtue of his office. 彼は一般的な、大アルカナのジャスティスに似ているのは明らかです。 ジャスティスの美徳を表しているのかもしれません。 しかし彼は自分の役目の美徳の中でむしろ生と死の...

Her right hand raises the weapon vertically and the hilt rests on an arm of her royal chair; the left hand is extended, the arm raised; her countenance is severe but chastened; it suggests familiarity with sorrow. 彼女は右手で武器を垂直に掲げています。 柄を王族のいすの肘掛に置いています。 左手を伸ばし、腕を上げています 表情は厳しいのですが、抑えられています 悲しみと類似点があることを示しています。 It does not represent mercy, and, her sword notwithstanding, she is scarcely...

The figure calls for no special description; the face is rather dark, suggesting also courage, but somewhat lethargic in tendency. この人物について特別に描写することはないでしょう。 顔は少し浅黒く、勇気を象徴していますが、いくらか無感動な傾向を持ちます。 The bull's head should be noted as a recurrent symbol on the throne. 牛の頭が王位の象徴として繰り返し出てきているのでしょう。 The sign of this suit is represented throughout as engraved or blazoned with the pentagram, typi...

The face suggests that of a dark woman, whose qualities might be summed up in the idea of greatness of soul; she has also the serious cast of intelligence; she contemplates her symbol and may see worlds therein. 日に焼けた女性の顔を表しています。 この人物の特性は魂の偉大さという概念の中で計ることができるといってもいいでしょう。 彼女はたいへん知性的な顔立ちをしています。 彼女は自分のシンボルを熟視し、その中にあるたくさんのものを見出しているのかもしれません。 Divinatory Mean...

A young man, leaning on his staff, looks intently at seven pentacles attached to a clump of greenery on his right; one would say that these were his treasures and that his heart was there. 若い男性が、自分のつえに寄りかかって、右手の緑樹のやぶの中につけられたペンタクルをじっと見ています。 これらは彼の宝物で、彼の気持ちがこもっているのだという解釈もあります。 Divinatory Meanings: These are exceedingly contradictory; in the main, it is a card of money, business, barter; but ...

A person in the guise of a merchant weighs money in a pair of scales and distributes it to the needy and distressed. 商人の格好をした人が秤でお金を計って、貧乏で悩んでいる人たちに分けてあげています。 It is a testimony to his own success in life, as well as to his goodness of heart. 自分が人生に成功したことと、心が善良であることの証です。 Divinatory Meanings: Presents, gifts, gratification; another account says attention, vigilance; now is the accepted time, present prosper...

Two mendicants in a snow-storm pass a lighted casement. 二人の物乞いが吹雪の中、明かりのついた開き窓の前を通り過ぎています。 Divinatory Meanings: The card foretells material trouble above all, whether in the form illustrated―that is, destitution―or otherwise.

Reversed: Disorder, chaos, ruin, discord, profligacy. ---...

A crowned figure, having a pentacle over his crown, clasps another with hands and arms; two pentacles are under his feet. 冠をかぶった人物が、ペンタクルを１つ頭の上にのせ、もう１つを手と腕で握り締めています。 ２つのペンタクルが足元にあります。 He holds to that which he has. 彼は、自分が持っているものに囚われています。 Divinatory Meanings: The surety of possessions, cleaving to that which one has, gift, legacy, inheritance.

A young man, in the act of dancing, has a pentacle in either hand, and they are joined by that endless cord which is like the number 8 reversed. 若い男性が踊っているところです。 彼は各手にペンタクルを１つずつ持っています。 その両手は数字の８を逆さにしたような形の無限大のヒモで結ばれています。 Divinatory Meanings: On the one hand it is represented as a card of gaiety, recreation and its connexions, which is the subject of the design; but it is read also as news and messages...

A hand―issuing, as usual, from a cloud―holds up a pentacle. いつものように、雲から出た手は、五芒貨を支えています。 Divinatory Meanings: Perfect contentment, felicity, ecstasy; also speedy intelligence; gold.

In any case it shews prosperity, comfortable material conditions, but whether these are of advantage to the possessor will depend on whether the card is reversed or not. ---------------------------...
