Hello all,

ON July 22nd I was going through a few of my card decks, just reconnecting with them as I like to do from time to time, and I was thinking about a subject related to this website, the MW board. I had just put down the Elemental Tarot and picked up the Londa deck which I had not touched for a month or so, and still thinking casually about MW, began shuffling the deck. Well, as sometimes happens, a couple of cards jumped out of my hands - the four of wands and the four of pentacles... I reasoned "well, they may have stuck together, maybe I had sorted them by values before I put them away last time" and set them in front of me and continued to shuffle. a few minutes later, another card jumped out of the shuffle... it was a four of swords. I realized it must not be coincidence and wrote the incident down so i could share it here and hopefully have some interpretation shed by the good people of the board.

four of wands
four of pentacles
four of swords

Any thoughts about about a combination like this would be helpful.

P.S. Incidently, the subject I was thinking about was of bringing together a collection of thoughts about individual cards by polling ... almost in the sense of --what would a MysticWick Tarot deck be like?-- Card by card.

Interesting that if you add 22nd - 2+2 you get 4! :D
Even more interesting as the fours have magical impkications as do the four elements -- fire, water, air and earth! Four suits, four tools, four corners of the earth, four wise animals, four watchtowers! Fours are very significant!
You drew three fours! which is significant as we should think about the missing four too ~ the emotional four..

Four of wands symbolises the unity and passion of Mystic wicks Id say, Four of Pentacles the family, wealth, gaining of knowledge aspects and Four of swords the communicational, teaching and learning skills here! So you got an answer to your question!
Maybe this MW Tarot card deck is a brilliant idea ;)

I've just recently started to really understand the significance of number combinations. This is a big help. Thanks Silver Venus for taking a few minutes to help.
