The Cards
The cards contained in Piatnik series No. 1901 and 1904 land themselves well to use by the inexperienced cartomancer. Their meaning is relatively easily deciphered, although it is important to avoid falling into the trap of adhering too closely and literally to the meanings suggested by the pictures and captions. However, the cards are explicit enough in their connotations to make a detailed commentary unnecessary. When using this deck it is essential that you should concentrate less on the significance of the individual cards then on their relative positions and the overall meaning suggested by their arrangement on the table. The Hungarian Gypsy Tarot card can be used for virtually any systems of laying the cards. There follow descriptions of three simple and popular techniques: Rows, The Wheel of Fortune and The Gypsy's Answer.
1. Rows
The cards are shuffled and both the inquirer and the card reader are satisfied that they are ready to be laid out. The inquirer cuts the deck.
The cards are arranged face up on the table in four rows of 9 cards each (Gypsy Cards) or 8 cards each (Cartomancy Deck).
The Diagram above represents one possible starting-point. The cards adjacent to the inquirer's card (always "merriment") shed light on it. The cards on the horizontal axis to the left and right of "merriment" disclose information pertaining to the past (left) and the future (right). On the vertical axis, the cards above the inquirer's card reveal his or her thoughts and preoccupations (what is in his or her head), those below the inquirer's card what the inquirer is reluctant to accept (what he or she treads under foot). The cards located diagonally to the inquirer's card have a bearing on both the horizontal and the vertical axis.
