Your approach reminded me of Melanchollics' method, which he says is influenced by the following:-
Iamblichuss' The Theology of Arithmetic
Aristotles' Generation and Corruption
Here is "Aristotles' Chart of Opposition"
Limited--------Unlimited
ODD -------EVEN
One--------Plurality
Right-------Left
Male--------Female
At Rest-----Moving
Straight----Crooked
Light-------Darkness
Good-------Bad
Square-----Oblong
Note that Mel says he switched Active (moving) and Passive (at rest).
_______________
Then he gives some sweeping generalisations about Numbers for reading purposes:
ODD...........EVEN
indivisible....divisible
singular.......plural
right...........left
male...........female
active.........passive
direct..........indirect

There is fact a great deal more, which can be found in older threads here at AT. But a full description of all the Pips and Suits is here at this link:-

The last post (2015) gives a link to a downloadable pdf.

Thanks! Quite a while ago I downloaded all of Mel's bits-and-pieces from the posts and assembled them into a single document (before I realized someone had already done that). My present approach is based on Joseph Maxwell's and J.E. Cirlot's observations about the philosophical properties of numbers and geometric shapes, respectively.
