Six of Chalices
Кубки
Как выводится эта карта
Papus gives no separate description of this card. It is derived from his system: Chalices is He (ה), the passive, receptive principle, acting in Briah, the creative world; the number 6 is Vau of the second series, the equilibrium restored on new ground. The meaning below is that combination read out — the passive, receptive principle taken at its 6th term — not a quotation from him.
Прямое положение
Equilibrium recovered after five, and in the receptive world what restores balance is the past — memory, the return of something formerly given. Papus's sixth term always repairs the disturbance of the fifth, and here it repairs by continuity: what was is still available. Sympathy with history behind it, which does not have to be established from nothing and is therefore cheap to resume.
Перевёрнутое положение
The past used as a shelter rather than a resource — return that is really a refusal to go on. Or the memory of a relation preferred to the relation itself, which is the quiet version of the same error.

В раскладе
At the commencement, the matter begins in something resumed. In opposition, a history the querent cannot get out from under. At equilibrium the past is what is keeping this steady. As the result: restoration — the same ground, recovered rather than replaced.
