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

Symbols

In the Book T design

Five buds hang above the upper pentacles without touching them.

Two accounts

Book T: Lord of Success Unfulfilled.

A promising undertaking does not yield the expected return. Small gains may occur, but the account emphasizes much effort with little lasting result.

Thoth: Seven 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.
