You need 12 for the zodiac signs and 30 for the possible degrees. Choose a card from each stack & read the phrase.

Craft stores like Michaels sell plain wooden discs in at least 2 sizes that are handy. Other people paint the glass aquarium stones.

Dane Rudhyar's book talks about getting 2 decks of playing cards where the backs are 2 different colors.

The signs from an astrology deck with 1 through 30 of a Lenormand or other numbered oracle work great, too! (I use the Essential Guide to Astrology and Flower Wisdom, a 32 card deck that's numbered. They both are cute small cards, so they play well together!)

This is a really good idea cardlady22. Ideal for anyone unfamiliar with astrology.


The Sabian Symbols relate to the degrees of the astrological zodiac signs. Each sign consists of 30degees. There is Symbol for each degree. Some astrologers use them. I'm sure someone else must have said this in an earlier post, but I haven't read all of this thread, so please forgive me if I haven't mentioned you.
