A | B | C | D | E |
F | G | H | I | J |
K | L | M | N | O |
P | Q | R | S | T |
U | V | W | X | Y |

HOP. Exchange lines A and U, or F and P.
Either one of the Crosses plus either one of the Hops, constitutes the General Transformer, known as the Star.
If A+Y=E+U, any one of them can be used singly.
JUMP. Exchange lines B and E, or F and U.
Either can be used on some tarots and both together on all Q tarots.
STEP. Exchange lines, 1st, AB. 2nd, DE. 3rd, AF. 4th, P and U.
All of these at one time, constitute the General Transformer the "Twist."
