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

His synthesis · Arcanum 8
Justice: The Arcanum of Job “Suffering, Tests, Pain.”
— Samael Aun Weor, Tarot and Kabbalah, ch. 86, Prediction and synthesis
Its esoteric meaning · Arcanum 8
Arcanum number 8 is Judgement. The 8 is the number of Job; tests and sufferings. The esoteric sense of this is represented by a sword. The number 8 is the number of the Infinite. The vital forces of the Fire of Phlegethon and the Water of Acheron circulate, intertwining in the Ninth Sphere in the heart of the Earth in the form of an eight. The sign of the Infinite is also formed within the spinal column.
