Ship House
expansion
The Ship House is where horizons widen. Travel, foreign connections, trade, and anything that takes you beyond your usual boundaries operates through this position. A card here shows what kind of expansion is underway and whether the journey has a destination or is still searching for one.

When a supportive card lands here
Productive distance. A supportive card here points to rewarding travel, successful commerce, or perspective gained by stepping outside your comfort zone.
When a difficult card lands here
Drift without direction. A difficult card here suggests aimless movement, homesickness, deals that look better from a distance, or expansion that stretches resources too thin.
Reading this house
In the Grand Tableau, every card that lands in position 3 is coloured by this house's theme. Read the visiting card first on its own terms, then ask how expansion reshapes its meaning. A supportive card here amplifies the house; a difficult card creates friction within it.
