Astrology
The estate deck could be used in astrological readings on compatibilities of couples and groups or fortune telling.
Detailed interpretation of the cards is beyond the scope of this first edition, however a procedure for card selection may help stimulate further investigation.
One person shuffles the 60 card deck then places it in front of the person to their left who selects a card by cutting, makes a mental note of the card and replaces it before shuffling the deck and placing it in front of the next player. This process repeats until all players have selected a card and noted its face value. The number on the card refers to the animal while the estate signifies the element. For example the 7 of Waves signifies the Earth Horse while the Man of Diamonds signifies the Wood Dog. Participants then consult their Chinese Astrological Primer, Numerology Chart or Tarot Manual for an interpretation.
There is more to follow in subsequent editions. Feel free to send in your suggestions and comments. Worthwhile content will be posted to the website and may appear in the next book.
