Quadrate Visuals
In this section, I will put up examples of different visuals illustrating various aspects of Thomas Morrell's Mystic Quadrate System and how he applies these aspects to the various Quadrates. I will also point out differences between the Mystic Quadrate System and Camp's Destiny Cards when necessary in SIDE NOTES.
VISUAL ONE
The Mystic Conjunction
Thomas Morrell came up with the concept of Mystic Conjunctions in his research and says:
"What I have observed, is when 2 or more influences line up in different Quadrates, a significant event usually occurs. I now call these 'Mystic Conjunctions'. These can happen in a number of ways; The same Quadrate is ruling 2 or more different increments at the same time, the same planetary influence is ruling 2 or more progressions at the same time, the same card is ruling 2 or more progressions at the same time, the same planetary box square is ruling 2 or more progressions at the same time, OR all of the above at the same time (which would be the strongest) as well as other smaller synchronistic occurrences."
In this visual, I will give the third example from above, where the same planetary card is ruling 2 (or more) progressions at the same time. This is a chart of a 24 year old male whose birthcard is the Ace of Hearts and his ruling card is the 3 of Spades.
In the illustration below, I will show you a linear version of the direct lineup array of two Quadrate charts. The top one is his 7 year chart direct line up (Quadrate #3). The bottom one is the solar chart direct line up for his 24th year. As you can see, the 10 of Clubs is highlighted under the Green boxes on both direct lines from each chart, thus causing them to form a Mystic Conjunction.
SIDE NOTE: In Camp's System, the cards in the 7 year chart are also known as the Long Range Cards and represent cards that put an important focus on the whole year ahead in general, whether for good or bad.

Another way of looking at this same chart is the following:
On your bottom left, you can see the 24th Quadrate for his yearly chart. His birthcard is the Ace of Hearts and his ruling card is the 3 of Spades, both highlighted. The 10 of Clubs is also highlighted in dark blue to represent his direct Mercury period in this particular example.
On the right hand side is his 7 year chart, presented in tabular form to give a clearer perspective. As you can see, he is in a 7 year Jupiter period, as well as a Jupiter sub period (color coded). In his 24th year, he is represented by the 10 of Clubs in his Jupiter sub period. (You can also look at Quadrate #3 if you have the book of plates in front of you and want to see it in this format). Thus it forms a Mystic Conjunction with the 10 of Clubs in his yearly chart.
It means that during his Mercury period, the 10 of Clubs will bring success to any endeavors, plans or ideas that he may pursue and the Mystic Conjunction connection will add that much more emphasis and strength to his success, (and at another level, even more so because of his being in a Jupiter 7 year and sub planetary Jupiter period.)
SIDE NOTE: Thomas Morrell refers to the card plates as Quadrates (as illustrated below using the Yearly Quadrate). There are 90 of them. Robert Lee Camp refers to them as the 90 Grand Solar Spreads. While Thomas would call it a Yearly Quadrate, Camp refers to it as a Yearly Spread. Camp also uses the actual face cards instead of the symbols in each box.
