Elements of the Psychic World: First documented in 1939 by Cambridge University psychical researcher Whitely Carrington, and now observed as a common occurrence, displacement is lack of synchronization in psi testing. For example, a person asked to give the order of a pack of playing cards or ESP cards may be one or two cards ahead or behind in sequence. Displacement also occurs in pre-cognitive dreams and psychic readings, when difficult or challenging information is placed out of context or buried in non-threatening information or symbols.

Elements of the Psychic World: In Tarot divination, results can be achieved with analysis of just one card, but for more thoroughness combinations of several cards in set patterns are usually used. These patterns are called spreads. There are many, many spreads, although the Celtic Cross is often taught to beginners as their first spread. More experienced practioners will use their own spreads, assigning their own meanings to the relevant positions represented.

Tarot Triumphs: 26 Those who wanted such a conventional or straight-forwardly recognizable set of emblems had the Minchiate Tarot to work with. Although this contains similar cards to the twenty-two Triumphs of the Marseilles Tarot, it has been expanded to include sets of images representing, for instance, the signs of the zodiac, the theological virtues, the four elements, and the five senses. It is much more schematic, but although it is overtly more philosophical, it seems to have been used primarily as a card game rather than for illumination or divination. See A History of Playing Cards and a Bibliography of Cards and Gaming by Catherine Perry Hargrave (Mineola, NY: Dover, 1966), 228–9 and indexed references.
