Letter, Tree of Life and sky
These are the fixed links every card carries. A Major Arcana card has a Hebrew letter and a path on the Tree of Life, the Kabbalah diagram of ten spheres joined by twenty-two paths. A Minor card has an element and a place in the Tree's scheme: one of its ten spheres, or for a court card one of its four worlds. Every card also has a sky: a planet, a sign or an element. These links connect the card to astrology and to Kabbalah, and most of them come from the Golden Dawn's tables, as this deck's card system records them.
