Combine the numbers with other immediate cluessuch as the card’s suit (Wands, Cups, Swords, Pentacles), colors, and main image and you will be able
to quickly discern the card’s meaning.

professional number techniques, such as finding your tarot Birth Card by adding up the numbers in your date of birth, and discovering your ‘tarotscope’—which tarot cards influence each year of your life.
