What's the Meaning of Marked Playing Cards?

  • When we shuffle and spread a pack of cards, we
    can see there are 54 cards in total. Although we
    often play cards in our spare time, but actually
    there are few people knowing the exact meaning of
    each marked playing card. Except for two jokers,
    the other 52 playing cards represent 52 weeks in
    a whole year.
  • Amid four poker suits, spade stands for spring,
    heart for summer, club for autumn and diamond is
    for winter. Every set of suit has 13 cards
    inside, which represents a quarter of a year (13
    weeks). There is an interesting thing that if you
    take time to count the points every poker suit,
    you will be surprised to find that the total is
    91, which is equal to 91 days in a quarter of a
    year. What's more, there are only two colors of a
    complete pack of marked playing cards.

  • Their colors are red and black. Interestingly, it
    is said that the red color means the day while
    the black means the night. As for the meaning of
    poker suits, people in different countries have
    different interpretations. In China, people think
    the four suits as four seasons in nature. In
    France, the Frenchmen take them as spear, square,
    clove leaf and red heart. In Italy, the Italians
    consider them as sword, coin, walking stick and
    wine glass, while in Britain, the British look
    poker suits as scoop, diamond, clover and heart.
  • Although different countries have their unique
    interpretations of the four suits of marked
    playing cards, the meanings are interesting. If
