Have you ever thought why a deck of cards consist of the cards that it does? Well the cards have meanings and those meanings are based on the calendar – the thirteen lunar months of the year.
Magical colours denote the Jack –Queen – King - i.e. 11 – 12 – 13. There are notably three hundred and sixty four pips in a pack of cards. The Joker card was included as the missing pip so as to tally up the number of days in a year. At first a pack of cards only contained one Joker therefore a second was added by some modifiers to represent a leap year.
