How he reads a minor card
Add the major Arcanum to the result of the sum of the two digits of each one of the minor ones. If the result is greater than 22, add the digits once again; the final result is the card of prediction, the result. This is further clarified with the prediction of the 2 minor Arcana.
The Prodigy: 26 = 2 + 6 = 8

Its esoteric meaning · Arcanum 5
The number 5 is grandiose, sublime; it is the number of the rigour of the Law, it is the number of Mars and of war. Arcanum number 5 of the Tarot indicates the Teaching, Karma and the Explanation to us. It symbolises the fifth cycle, the fifth race, the fifth sun, the five tattwas, the five fingers, the five gospels, the five senses, the five cells of the cerebrum and the ovary, and the five aspects of the Divine Mother.
