Elemental Dignities

To understand the elemental relationships between the cards, we should always take into account their actual meaning. The elements of the cards are Air (Ace of Swords) and Earth (Nine of Pentacles). A neutral combination in which the Earth card often tries to oppose the Air Card by absorbing its energy, through a gravitational pull. However, these two have a common thread: the element of discipline and control. That's why we should expect positive results when this combination comes up in a reading.
