Chambers cartomancy collection

I am going to return with a link to Robert Chambers "English System" which is dated 1869 and supposedly a soldier's wife taught him when he was young-he was born in 1802. Dorothy Valiente notes in her 1975 Natural Magic references to a duel or scaffold had been outlawed or not common in her times. Her source was Robert Chambers The Book of Days: A Miscellany of Popular Antiquities. It is online and some faster than myself can link to it--I am typing from a phone, so cannot paste the link at the moment.

The card combinations are important, too. A six of diamonds for example, will have a meaning, but if three sixes show up in the same spread, it affects the meaning of all of them. This is one of the things that makes cartomancy different from tarot, and gives it its own special zing.

Combinations maybe be used with Tarot too, for example from Book T:

4 Aces Great power and force.
3 Aces Riches, success.
4 Kings (Knights) Swiftness, rapidity.
3 Kings (Knights) Unexpected meetings. Knights, in general, shew news.
4 Queens Authority, influence.
3 Queens Powerful friends.
4 Princes Meetings with the great.
3 Princes Rank and honour.
4 Princesses New ideas or plans.
3 Princesses Society of the young.
4 Tens Anxiety, responsibility.
3 Tens Buying and selling (commerce).
4 Nines Added responsibilities.
3 Nines Much correspondence.
4 Eights Much news.
3 Eights Much journeying.
4 Sevens Disappointments.
3 Sevens Treaties and compacts.
4 Sixes Pleasure.
3 Sixes Gain, success.
4 Fives Order, regularity.
3 Fives Quarrels, fights.
4 Fours Rest, peace.
3 Fours Industry.
4 Threes Resolution, determination.
3 Threes Deceit.
4 Twos Conferences, conversations.
3 Twos Reorganization, recommendation
