Since I have a system (this was supposed to become a 2 card system with 2.704 images) in which every value combination of 2 cards is translated as a person (by means of reading the values as letters; 169 persons), I imagined It would be promising to combine this with a system that would allow me translate every suit combination of 2 cards in an animal using symbolic/picture reading. The basic idea is a bit like watching a foreign language movie and also reading subtitles; 2 mental tasks that are highly compatible.
Summary of the method:
= an animal paw/hand;
= sharp (and therefore) dangerous object;
= an animal footprint;
= loved/ desired object.- XY/YX suit combinations are represented as 2 animals that are very simular, with the stronger animal on the right (my right hand is more powerful than my left so this makes intuitive sense to me; hopefully the left/right distinction will become more clear further down this post).
XX-suit combinations:
![]()
= (paws of an) eagle;
![]()
= a zebra (being attacked by 2 spears; the black and white color match is a bonus);
![]()
= the footprints of a giraf (stamping both front legs into the ground);
![]()
= a cameleon using his long tongue to lick 2 hearts at the same time.
Walking past danger combinations:
![]()
= a horse walking past danger on the left side;
![]()
= a deer walking past danger on the right side (I imagine a deer being more powerful than a horse, but keep in kind that this is about mnemonics and not biology).
Attacking danger combinations:
![]()
= a lion (on the left) attacking (with paw) danger;
![]()
= a tiger (on the right) attacking danger.
Walking towards desired object combinations:
![]()
= a rhino walking from left to right to desired object;
![]()
= an elephant walking from right to left to desired object.
Grabbing desired object combinations:
![]()
= a chimpansee (on the left) grabbing a desired object;
![]()
= a gorilla (on the right) grabbing a desired object.
Being seduced by desired object towards danger combinations:
![]()
= a humming bird (on the left) being seduced (imagine a honey flower) towards danger;
![]()
= a swan (on he right) being seduced towards danger.
Standing on 1 front paw and raising the other one combinations:
![]()
= a grizzly bear raising his left paw:
![]()
= a polar bear raising his right paw.
