Sepharial
“A man dressed as a groom, riding upon a spirited horse. It indicates a person of general aptitude, quick perception, steady mind and able body, who, in some secondary place, will serve the cause of truth: may be as a teacher, or as a priest, or one connected with the Church. Success in life is shown, but not pre- eminence. The life, while useful, will be obscure. It is a degree of SERVICE.”

Charubel
“A large building with walls of granite, having a dull or somber appearance.”
This denotes something lasting. This person will do some great deed in life, which will be handed down to posterity. His chief characteristic is firmness, not ghoulish. He will live to a ripe old age.

Kozminsky
“A wounded Bedouin mounted on his horse in the desert.”
Denotes one of unsettled tendencies with a strong desire for freedom and liberty of movement who, brave, daring, and adventurous, is ever restless if held to one place for long. He is not well fitted for ordinary life, as his employment changes so much, and some of these changes will be sudden. His nature is willful, erratic, impulsive, and his body is marked naturally or by accident. It is a symbol of Liberty.
