The Cards of Life
Based on your unique birth day one of the 52 cards in a playing deck is your birth card. This, along with other cards related to your birth card, combine to shape the challenges you may face and the gifts you can receive.
What are life cards?
Everyone has a birth card and associated secondary ruling card based on the day of their birth.
Additionally, you also have two additional karma cards, which are determined by your birth card.
All of these cards have an impact on your life, but in varying degrees. Reading the descriptions of each helps provide a more thorough view of what challenges and gifts you have.
The easiest way of thinking about the impact of each card is to remember that your birth card is generally the strongest representation of who you are, where all other cards have a smaller impact, as if the volume was turned down.
These cards represent aspects of your personality, both the challenges and the gifts you are likely to encounter during your life.
What are the Cards of Life?
In its most basic form, the Cards of Life it is a method that can help you gain information about yourself and others in your life, whether past, present or potential. Ultimately, this information can be used to compare two people, using their birth cards, for compatibility.
The Cards of Life method provides tangible, actionable data based on people’s birth cards. All we need is a birth month and day to determine you or someone else’s birth card. With multiple birth cards, our algorithm can provide comparison readings for these cards.
A comparison reading provides data you can use to make more informed decisions about ANY relationship before or after getting involved. This may unearth strong connections or expose potential pitfalls, regardless of the type of relationship.
The Cards of Life method was developed to help people better understand the relationships in their life. This method can be used to develop deeper connections with others, by better understanding who they are and what motivates them. The method can also be used to help put closure on relationships that have always been difficult, frustrating, or feel one-sided.
Connections can be past or current relationships, between family members, friends, partners, bosses, or anyone else with whom you have questioned why the relationship was so challenging. Alternatively, this method can help explain those times when you met someone and felt instantly comfortable, like you already knew them.
The cards method was designed to address situations like these, and many more, by analyzing the birth cards of the individuals in any relationship.
In a nutshell, the cards method only needs the birthdays of two people to be able to provide an analysis and this can be for any type of relationship.
How do playing cards relate to birthdays?
The Idea
The cards method uses mathematics to read patterns from a deck of playing cards. The insight gained can be applied to anyone’s daily life. This method has been around for hundreds of years and there are dozens of texts written on the subject. Our method takes this information a step further, applying the information in a way that is accessible to anyone without their need to read all the texts. This benefit of the cards method is that it is highly detailed and precise because it is based on a single day, rather than larger periods of time. The positions of the cards for a person’s life are anything but random!
The Cards
Each deck of playing cards has 4 suits comprised of 13 cards totaling 52, the same number of weeks in a year. The cycle of 52 weeks was mapped out in ancient times based on the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn.
The Months
There are a total of 12 royal or face cards across the four suits in each deck. There are also 12 months in a year and 12 signs of the Zodiac.
In numerology, the number 7 is considered a spiritual number and is the number of days in a each week.
The Seasons
There are four suits in a deck of cards: hearts, clubs, diamonds and spades. These correspond with powerful dynamics in our natural world:
- The four seasons which include Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter
- The four elements which include Water, Fire, Earth, and Air
The Math
If you add the face numbers of a deck of cards, giving Jacks a value of 11, Queens a 12 and Kings a 13, the sum is 364. The joker in a deck of cards counts as 1¼, ¼ for each suit and ¼ for itself. When you add the value of the joker to the value of the remainder of the deck, you get 365¼ days, the exact number of days in each year.

What do I need to be able to get a comparison reading?

- Why you never connected with certain family members
Insight into each of these can be found in the cards.
There is more to the cards method than a person’s birth card or a single reading. Every year of our life our cards sit in a different position. This means our life is consistently changing and so will the relationships in it. The cards method can help reveal this to you in a way you can capitalize on when the timing is best.
