similia said:In fact it may help to think to yourself, that the 2,3 and 4 of every suit are always Cardinal. The 5,6 and 7 are always Fixed, and the 8,9 and 10 are always Mutable. This affects their meaning, but also it allows you to work out the Sign when your unsure what it is. (e.g. "I am looking at the 7 of Wands... I can't remember what sign it is.... I know its a Fire sign since its Wands, and I know the 7's are always Fixed signs, so it must be Leo, the sign of Fixed Fire".) Once you get that formula under your belt, you can work out any card in a snap.
That is a very clear way of thinking about it! Instead of printing it off I have handwritten it all out and colour coded it myself with crayons. In writing it out by hand it seems to stick in my mind more than simply printing it off and reading it
I am enjoying learning it already and can't wait for my Liber t to arrive to put it into practice.
Love Fluffy
