Significators
To select a significator from among the court cards, first determine which suit best represents the querent, based on physical appearance, astrological sign, or personality. Then select the appropriate rank, based on age. One of the weaknesses of the traditional physical appearance method is that not every permutation of skin/hair/eye color is represented.
