I thought I’d share a personal card method based on sun and ascendant signs instead of birth date. It’s from the Golden Dawn Magical Tarot mini-kit book.
(For all keys, if the number is greater than 22, add the digits together. Fool = 22. Subtract in any order to get a positive number.)
Individuality Key = Sun sign card
Personality Key = Ascendant card
Problem Key = Individuality plus Personality
Solution Key = Difference of (subtract) Individuality and Personality
Means Key = Difference of (subtract) Problem and Solution
Integration Key = Add all five other cards
My take on the meanings:
Individuality is the real you.
Personality is how you present yourself to the world and how you’re perceived.
Problem is the work to be done or lesson to be learned in this lifetime.
Solution is the answer to the problem you should aim for.
Means is the way to achieve the Solution.
Integration is the way all the previous keys work together as a higher solution.
Golden Dawn Card-Sign Attributions
Aries = 4. Emperor
Taurus = 5. Hierophant
Gemini = 6. Lovers

Virgo = 9. Hermit
Libra = 11. Justice
Scorpio = 13. Death
Sagittarius = 14. Temperance

There are many sites that will cast your chart, including your ascendant, for free. Time of birth is needed to calculate the ascendant.
