A few years ago I have created this Astrology/Alchemy Poker card deck. It uses the same logic as normal cards but replaces the four suits with the four elements Earth, Water, Air and Fire. They are visualiszed via the alchemical symbology of the triangle pointing up or down and with or without a horizontal line in the center.
The twelve zodiac signs in astrology are devided into three signs for each element. This fits perfectly with the Jack, Queen and King so I have replaced them with C = Cardinal, F = Fixed and M = Mutual which are the three attributes within each element (in that order). Out of that concludes the actual zodiac sign as for example Fire + Fixed alwyas creates Leo. That way I was able to use all twelve zodiac signs and each in their according element and attribute.
