Playing Cards
Some interesting facts and observations about “Playing cards”::😳
Did you know that the Traditional Deck of the Playing Cards are a strikingly coherent form of a Calendar?😳
There are 52 weeks in the year and so are 52 Playing Cards in a Deck.😳
There are 13 weeks in each Season and thus there are 13 cards in each suit. 😳
There are 4 Seasons in a Year and 4 Suits in the Deck. 😳
There are 12 Months in a Year so there are 12 Court Cards (Those with faces namely Jack, Queen King in each suit) 😳
The Red Cards represent the Day, while the Black Cards represent the Night.😳
If you let, Jacks = 11, Queens = 12, and the Kings = 13, then add up all the sums of 1 + 2 + 3 + …to 13 = 91. Multiply this by 4, for the 4 Suits, therefore 91 x 4 = 364, Add 1 that is the Joker and you will arrive at the number 365 being the Days in a Year? 😳
Is that a mere coincidence or a greater intelligence?😳
Of interest is the sum of the letters in all the names of the cards; eg :
add up the letters in “one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, Jack, Queen, King” = 52!😳
The Spades indicate plowing/ working.😳
The Hearts indicates Love thy crops. 😳
The Clubs indicates flourishing and growth. 😳
The Diamonds indicate reaping Wealth.😳
Also, in some card games, 2 Jokers are used. Indicating the Leap year.😳
There is a deeper Philosophy than just merely a Game of Playing Cards.😳😳
The Mathematical perfection is mind-blowing.
