The earliest Tarot decks were unnumbered, but that can
be easily explained because cards 1 to 22 are ideograms
for the Phoenician (Hebrew) alphabet. They're the ABCs.
And the Aces, Courts, and Pips need no big explanation.
But what about Kabbalah and Numerology? What does
applying the information available in those systems add
to the otherwise straightforward significance of the cards?

You can fish using a line on a pole with a worm on a hook,
or collect an assortment of lures to help add an advantage.
Maybe you choose to cast out from the left side of the boat,
or do your fishing in the morning, or only during a sunset.
Any way you go with it, the fish has a lot to say about things,
and it's not going to help much at all trying if the water is bad.
Tarot takes us into the mystic realms of ancient teachings and
much like the fisherman it can be sport or mean life and death.

Here's a sample question along these lines I'll call:
Red Devil # 9 "The World's Greatest Fishing Lure"
How (and why) is it that the first 10 cards of the Major Arcana
are associated with the Sephora, and why use numberological
reduction for the Majors over 10 to have them conform as well?
Is the Pythagorean Decad the final authority for such matters?
