Step 1: Find the first card on the following table

A=AD-AC J=10D-10C S=6S-6H
B=2D-2C K=JD-JC T=7S-7H
C=3D-3C L=QD-QC U=8S-8H
D=4D=-4C M=KD-KC V=9S-9H
E=5D-5C N=AS-AH W=10S-10H
F=6D-6C O=2S-2H X=JS-JH
G=7D-7C P=3S-3H Y=QS-QH
H=8D-8C Q=4S-4H Z=KS-KH
I=9D-9C R=5S-5H


Step 2: Find the second card on the following table

Ace = 1 Upright 2 = 2 Reversed 3 = 3 Upright KD = Wild Card Upright
4 = 1 Reversed 5 = 2 Upright 6 = 3 Reversed KS = Wild Card Reversed
7 = 1 Upright 8 = 2 Reversed 9 = 3 Upright KC = Wild Card Upright
10 = 1 Reversed J = 2 Upright Q = 3 Reversed KH = Wild Card Reversed

Notes: You can either use the Kings as blank cards or draw another card or use the following Wild Card Concept:

*Wild Card = Any of the three of the corresponding letter of Step 3
        Example:
            A - The Fool - 5 of Pentacles - 3 of Wands

Step 3: Find the letter on the following table to find the first coordinate:
