RWS and Golden Dawn court ranks

Tarot glossary

The Golden Dawn court has four powers: fiery Knight, watery Queen, airy Prince, and earthy Princess. Waite printed the familiar King, Queen, Knight, and Page instead. Modern readers pair his King with the fiery Knight and his Knight with the airy Prince. His Page matches the earthy Princess. This mapping is useful, but Waite never states it as a table.
