A pack of cards is sometimes compared to a calendar:
52 cards remind you there are 52 weeks in the year;
12 stand for 12 months in the year.
Four suits are like four seasons of the year.
If you add up the number of pips on the cards counting one for the Ace, two for the Deuce, three for Trey, and so on up to Ten, plus 11 for the Jack, 12 for the Queen, and 13 for the King, and one for the Joker, you will en dup with 365, which is the number of the days in the year.
