I am trying to find visual groupings in the TdM- especially groups of 7- to find for sure the Cards that visually show a relationship to them (Planets)
I have found that 6 Cards are definitively on thrones
11, 111, 1V, V, V11, V11
Moon, Venus, Mars, Mercury, Saturn, Jupiter and the Sun
1 card that maybe (Le Diable) is throned? and he looks more like the Chariot than L'amore/Lovers to me. Is Le Diable the Sun?
2 cards that have no Humans on them La Lune/Moon and La Roue/WOF (Solar and Lunar Calendars?)
7 Cards that are single figures 0, 1, 1X, X1, X11, X1V, XV11
5 Cards with multiple figures V1, XV, XV1, XX, X1X and maybe XX1 although La Monde is more like a single figure.
2 Cards that tradition has unnumbered Le Fou 0 and La Mort X111 although they are single figures.
So astrologically or astronomically what does this tell me?
0, 1, X111, XX1 are the elements?
V1, XV1, XX, X1X are the equinoxs and solstices ?Spring X1, Summer X1X, Fall XV1, Winter XX
add in the calendar cards X and XV111(who turn the seasons)
add in single figure cards not on thrones 1X, X1, X11, X1V, XV11, XX1 Now thats 12 the seasons/Zodiac/Months?
Now that I have addled your brains- who is XV Le Diable? The Planet Sun? Is he on a throne Standing or is he Zodiac/Month?
Any thoughts? ~Rosanne
