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

Six crossed wands meet in flame; Jupiter and Leo identify the decan.

Two accounts

Book T: Lord of Victory.

Success follows effort and conflict, with enjoyment and social ease among its possibilities. The account also warns that achievement can become arrogance.

Thoth: Six of Wands.

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.
