If you are >interested in Oriental then check out the I Ching. => > >Shadow Dancer Actually, in _The Book of Thoth_ (I believe, it's been a long time since I've read it), Crowley makes some connections between the I Ching and tarot. What I recall is a mapping of an I Ching hexagram to a court card. So, the I Ching hexagram which is earth of earth would map to Daughter of Disks (also Earth of Earth). The hexagram is split in half, these halves them map to one of the four elements, earth, air, fire, or water. The court cards are mapped by suite, which most people here will know already, and then personality (all I can think of now is the Motherpeace name for them): Shaman, priestess, son, & daughter. I can look this up and bring in the exact correspondences if anyone is interested. Judy
