Your tarot birth card or birth card pair is the card/s that represents you as a person, kind of like your zodiac sign.
You have your sun sign, which is how most people see you and then you have your moon sign, which is how you see yourself, or the more authentic you. Birth cards are like that… they’re overarching themes in our personality that have been with us since birth.
They tell you things about yourself that have been and will be present all throughout life.
There are 12 tarot birth card pairs. Although there are more than 12 types of people in the world, we can have the same foundations upon which our lives are built.
This building is what creates our individuality. Humans are in essence all built from the same materials, just in different amounts and in different ways. Birth cards are the building blocks, your foundation, but not everything. It’s what we add to those foundations are what make us authentic and different. I know being different sounds scary, but you don’t want to live in a world where everyone is the same, do you?
Being your authentic self is a good things.
Now, to calculate your birth card pair…
Step 1: Take your birth date and break it down into all two digit numbers
Example: July 25, 1989 can be broken down to 07 25 19 89.
Step 2: Now add these numbers up.
Example: 07+25+19+89=140
Step 3: If this number is a triple-digit, you will need to add the numbers again to get a two-digit number that’s less than 21.
Example: 140 = 14 + 0 = 14 (Temperance)
Step 4: This can further be broken down to single digits to get your other half of the pair.
14 = 1 + 4 = 5 (Hierophant)
So my birth card pair is Temperance/ Hierophant.
