It depends on the system you're referencing. Most magickal or Qabballist systems associate the Moon with 9, but other astrology systems associate it with 2. I found it interesting that they did as it matches up with II High Priestess which is also governed by the Moon. So it was a nifty tidbit, but if that's not the correspondence you work with, by all means toss it.

"The planetary association of the number two is the Moon."...... hhmmm.

Interesting association, but it really doesn't square up with the planetary attributions of all the individual 2 cards (2W=Mars, 2C=Venus, 2S=Moon, 2P=Jupiter) or the numerical association of the Moon which is 9. Neither does it correlate to the aspect of Kings governing the 2s, nor the connection of the High Priestess between that of 1 and 6 on the Tree... But still interesting nonetheless. :)

Thanks for the post! I have been struggling with a "this or that" situation and not understanding why the Two of Swords and Two of Pentacles keep showing up together.

Nice start to this series, Sophia. I, too, am almost enumerate. (Balance my check book? Say what!?) But love paying attention to the numbers in The Tarot. I did study numerology many years back and even tried my hand at numerology charts. (I'd offer my Tarot clients a numerology chart as part of the "deal.") But there was ultimately just too much math involved and no pictures! I.e., it wasn't Tarot. LOL! But it did give me the underpinnings for relating to The Tarot's numbers. As you are doing in this fine series....
