Caitlin Matthews new book

Barleywine

Thanks for the tip, I will probably take a look at this book in french (if available).
Else, yes to count up the flowers, buds, leaves and branches looks like an approach a bit far-fetched!

Something I forget to mention: apparently - according to someone here on the forum - Maxwell (or possibly the translator) used an antecedent to the Thunder Bay TdM, so his color references for the cards probably won't match any other deck you have.

Okay, noted!
Else, I will probably take a look at Agrippa concerning numbers and their meanings; if the "core thing" with the pips is numerology (what I guess), Agrippa is a great reference!

The only thing I found with Agrippa is that he shrouded his meanings in religious embellishments, probably as camouflage to keep the Church mollified.
