Spans use a starting boundary inclusive and an ending boundary exclusive. Older texts may describe the same interval with ordinal degree numbers.

Book T (1912) · printed p. 180 ↗Two accounts
Book T: Lord of Material Gain.
Material gain has been realized, including resources received through inheritance. The account places this abundance beside acquisitiveness, with its character depending on the surrounding cards.
Thoth: Nine of Disks.
Book T’s title is shown separately from the Thoth name. The symbol note below describes the 1912 text, whose design can differ from Harris’s painting.
