How to read it
The cards lie along a road: read them in order from the lower left to the upper right, then come back along the last two. The first half is preparation and travel: why you go, how you pack, what the journey itself turns into and what the first days are like. The middle is money and companions, and the trip's main discomfort usually hides there. The upper cards are the summit: the chief impression, the hindrance and what you carry home. Compare the first card with the last: the difference between them is what the journey is actually for.
Positions
Why you are going
The real reason for the trip: rest, escape, a meeting, curiosity or someone's invitation.
Getting ready
How preparation goes and what you will almost certainly forget or leave to the last day.
The journey out
What the journey itself is like: calm, long, with changes or with an unexpected delay.
The first days
How the place greets you and how long it takes before you can finally breathe out.
Money on the trip
How the money goes and where the budget turns out thinner than you planned.
Your companions
Who travels with you and how that company will shape the whole trip.
The chief impression
The moment the trip actually happened for, even if it was never in the plan.
What may go wrong
The trouble worth foreseeing: weather, health, documents or a quarrel.
What you bring back
What stays with you after you return, besides photographs and tiredness.
