Elements and Houses
There are two clues besides the sorting hat song and the students that have been sorted (that we've been introduced to so far). They are the animal mascots and the locations of the houses.

for a detailed argument of why
Gryffindor = Fire
Slytherin = Water
Hufflepuff = Earth
Ravenclaw = Air
Now you still have to have an agreement as to which tarot suits correspond to which element Personally, I believe that Wands = Fire and Swords = Air, but there is certainly a contingent that believes the opposite.

Kaylee Marie said:Matching suits to houses is a good idea, but a tricky one. Webwitch brings up an excellent point that Ravenclaws are the intellectuals. And Slytherins do seem rather high-strung and emotional. I hate to put them with the cups though, as I can't think of any Slytherins that could represent the positive side of the cups suit. And after all, the swords suit is all about life's tests and nobody tests Harry more than they. There is also an argument to assign Slytherins to the Pentacles suit, as they are very materialistic.
So I don't really have an answer to this question. Griffindor should definitely be fire, Slytherin could be any other suit, and we really don't know much about Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff, as there are only minor characters in each of those houses. Thoughts, anyone?
