.

1)

False markers. Various kinds of cheap, low-quality counterfeits of elite brands, well-known companies, and services. Such markers don't correspond in either form or content. For instance, the very chunky and flashy fake gold chains adorning the necks of swankers on social media.

.

2)

"Borrowed" markers. Elite objects and services borrowed or rented for a limited time. Such markers correspond in form, but not in content. Rented limos, jewelry, watches, tuxedos, an escort, etc.

.

3)

Fashionable brand markers. Various kinds of designer brands and labels, which can serve as an indirect indicator that a person has a certain amount of spare cash. Such branded things are generally more expensive than mass-produced goods, so they usually target wealthier people.

.

4)

Well-made, expensive, goods of high-quality. For example, simple jewelry made of precious metals and gemstones. Expensive, natural, high-quality fabrics and materials, such as cashmere, natural silk, pure cotton, linen, crocodile leather, etc. Top brands and products which, from the outset, at cost, are expensive. For example, a Rolex watch

5)

In the wild, all predators camouflage themselves to blend into the natural background. The strongest markers of wealth are outwardly inconspicuous, not flashy, yet expensive things, which mask the wealth of their owner. For example, certain brands and models of worn-and-torn clothing disguise their owner as hippies, the down-and-out, the homeless, etc. And platinum, for instance, which looks like cheap silver, is more expensive than gold. Such a disguise can help its owner avoid the unsolicited attention of beggars, robbers, gigolos, kidnappers, blackmailers, etc.

The distinguishing feature of the Page of Disks – it serves as an indicator of the manifestation of Matter (or Finance).

.

A business woman is sitting in a bar. A man comes up to her:

-Hi, there! Mind if I keep you company?

– Company? You keep companies? Are you buying or selling?

.

The Queen, according to the Kabbalah, is some person or object which serves as the center of attention, the focal point of power and influence. The object around which Matter or Finance "revolve".

Accordingly, the Queen of Disks is the focal point around which Matter or Finance revolve.

This center, for example, may symbolize an important object, a building, a landmark, an important customer, or a bank.

A word about how to determine the Tarot suit of the "persona":

If it makes little difference whether or not the Persona is dressed, if they attract the observer's attention with their physical body, their Material presence – most likely, this is the Queen of Disks.

If it's the Persona's charm, allure, and emotions that draw the viewer's attention – most likely, this is the Queen of Cups (Hearts).

If the Persona attracts attention with a particular concept, motto, idea, philosophy, action/statement (such as Lady Gaga's meat dress), then this is the Queen of Swords (Spades).

If the Persona draws attention with a particular trend or fashion, suggests some sort of potential, project, development path, or choice, then this is the Queen of Wands (Clubs).

That said, gender, race, biological species make no difference. Tarot Queens can symbolize both a man and a woman. As well as inanimate objects and even processes.

A claim to fame and a desire to grab attention – these are a "reversed" Five, in the aspect of the element where it's most manifested.

A traffic cop signals a Mercedes S600 to stop. The "new Russian" pulls over, but doesn't get out of the car. The traffic cop waits for the driver to go up to him. A minute or two passes. Finally, the window of the Benz is rolled down:

– OK, pal, I haven't got all day. Which one of us here, in fact, actually needs the dough? Me or you?

.

The King, according to the Kabbalah, is the law, the law-giver and law-maker, a wielder and conductor of Power.

The object through which Power "manifests", controls, or is conveyed to the world.

Accordingly, the King of Disks is a Power Conductor of Matter or Finance.

In the Material world, he may symbolize, for example, a crane at a construction site.

In the Financial world, for example, he may symbolize the main formative market players. Such as, for instance, the dominant world currencies – the dollar, the pound, the euro, etc.
