Deck Of Cards

The Original Meaning Of A Deck Of Playing Cards:

52 cards for 52 weeks in the year

2 colors for day and night

4 suits for the 4 seasons and 13 weeks per season

Twelve court cards representing the 12 months

If we add each of the cards (ace + ace + ace + ace + two + two + three + seven + eight ... and etc)
of the game we will get 364

The card game is an agricultural calendar that told us about the weeks and the seasons
With each new season, it was King's week, followed by Queen's week, Jack's and so on until A's week
changed seasons and we started over with a new color

Jokers were used in Leap Year
