Matt’s cards
Every one is calculated from the birth date, not chosen: the tarot card by reducing the digits of December 30, 1957, the identity card by combining the BaZi day-master element with the Life Path number, and the two zodiac cards from the sun’s position and the Chinese year branch, and the metal from the planet that traditionally rules that sign.
