Pip · Ace through Ten · 40 cards
The pip cards describe situations the reading is about: a beginning, a choice, a quarrel, a long patience. They are the weather of the day.
Minor Arcana
Fifty-six cards across four suits. Each suit is tied to one of the four classical elements and to a domain of everyday experience. Within each suit, ten pip cards (Ace through Ten) describe situations, and four court cards (Page, Knight, Queen, King) describe the people who carry them.
