Of course,* the Knaves (Row/Circle) problem would be partly resolved if the vertical polarity of TII and TV, against TIII and TIV, was reversed, so that instead of (as at present) this:

(Inner Circle direction) This takes into account the link of A~ and R~.

(This as 'Knaves' does not fit Schizophrenia in late teens / early twenties – unless it occurs at Crisis [= +C].) <871220/21>

[In both of these (rectangular) diagrams there are diagonal arrows which cannot conveniently be represented in the typefaces acceptable for Blogger.]

				A~

(Outer Circle direction) Does this fit the Sistine Chapel Ceiling (e.g. Delphic Sybil) better?

I found the positions of of TII-[T]V too strong to change.

But what is curious is that a rigid pattern arrived at by dividing the numbered Tarots into 3 sets of 7, in 1980, should prove to be applicable, as it stood, to an apparently unrelated aspect of the Tarot Circle structure seven** years later.
