2015 by the Cards and Numbers

So what does the Year 2015 have in store for us? Let’s look at the Numbers and Cards to get a better look and understanding of what’s ahead.
2015 is a Number 8 Year (2+0+1+5=8) and 8 is the Number of Saturn. In things mundane, Saturn rules institutions that create rules, laws and also restrictions. It represents authority, conservative forces and people and/or things resistant to change.
Just from the Number alone we can see that 2015 will not be an easy year, as it is ruled by Saturn. Looking at it from living in America, both the House and Senate are now controlled by the Conservatives. My guess is that they will want to keep things as they are and try and restrict any progress, especially in regards to helping people. In the World as a whole, conservative forces will prevail, for good and bad. Even with Pope Francis trying to steer the Vatican/Catholics in a more compassionate direction, he is encountering resistance from the powers that be within it. This would likely happen for the Pope no matter what Number of the Year, but we haven’t heard too much about the opposition until a Number 8 Year rolled around.
While the Numeric Value of a Year can tell us something about it, knowing it’s Symbolic Value will add even more to the story. Using a similar technique as calculating the Card of a Name that I discovered years ago, we can easily determine the Card Value of Numbers larger than 52. This gives us the Symbolic Value of a Number. 2015 then calculates out to 39, the Solar Value of the King of Diamonds, Exalted Jupiter in Earth.
This is the highest Card in the Suit of Diamonds which rules money, financial matters, things we value and things of worth. It is also the only “one eyed” King in the deck and many who are this card see things in a limited way, or maybe even only their way.
Seeing this Card in mundane matters versus being the Card of an actual person, it would represent financial matters, banks, financial institutions and corporations (Diamonds representing money), along with possible religious views and institutions (Diamonds representing values.) Court Cards do represent qualities of people and the King of Diamonds may in fact also represent bankers, people of wealth, religious leaders, and even elected Government officials.
Since conservative forces rule under this influence (Saturn), corporations, financial institutions, religious leaders/causes, etc., will be getting their way even more and I would think even our freedoms and life style will be restricted to a greater extent than before.
Each Card has a Life, or Natal Chart similar to a Natal Chart in Astrology and since it is a Saturn Year, we can also look at the Saturn Card of the King of Diamonds, which is the 8 of Clubs. Again, 8 is the Number of Saturn so with the 8 of Clubs, we have even more Saturn influence upon the Year. Clubs is the Element of Air and would rule communications, ideas and information, with the restrictive, authorative influence of Saturn, the powers that be will be trying to limit things (Saturn) in the areas mentioned along with telling us THEIR view (King of Diamonds) on how things are and should be. In the Life Plate the 8 of Clubs falls in the Neptune Column and we are being told by the powers that be that the economy has improved, Wall Street is doing great and life is better in general. While that may be true on a small scale, with the influence of Neptune is it just an illusion – are they hiding from us what is really going on?
The King of Diamonds falls in the Mars Line/Venus Column – along with Saturn playing a big, restrictive role in the Year, Mars and Venus would have some effect, as well. Look for continued war and military profiteering, war on the people through the police force and a continued war on women. Five bills have already been introduced into the House to restrict abortions even more and to restrict funds for women’s health.
The King of Diamonds under a Saturn Year could be very positive – it could work to bring solid financial success, especially in regards to real estate, mining and agriculture. Honorable Spiritual leaders could come to the forefront and help steer the world in a more positive direction. The Mars/Venus position would possibly influence equal pay for women in the work place and better health services available to them. The 8 of Clubs could bring strength and teachings through communication and information. With it’s Neptune position dissolve barriers in having information available (net neutrality) and barriers between people, nations and groups so that communications between them would open up for a better world.
I am sure all of these positives mentioned are possible and will be in the conversation, but in our current environment of power and greed at this time, it is highly unlikely. Our world along with our own lives unfold in periods and cycles and we are simply going through them and evolving, obviously very slowly.
But wait until 2016, it will be a Number 9 Year, the Number of Mars which rules war, action, endings and loss and the Symbol for the Year will be the Ace of Spades, the Card of Death and Transformation. Should be a very interesting year.

Thomas Morrell has been studying and using the card system for over 24 years. In the mid to late 1990's he has made some incredible discoveries regarding the System, including newer ones since.
Understanding the basis of the rate of progression through the 90 Plates, which revealed 5 new Charts; the 364 Year Chart (the real Life Chart), the 28 Year Saturn Chart, the 91 Day Seasonal Chart, the 28 Day Lunar Chart and the true 7 Day Weekly Chart. Previously only the 91 Year, 7 Year and Yearly were known.
Created the Alphabet/Card Value Key so one can calculate the Card for any Name and along with this, how to determine the Planetary Ruling Card for a Name.
The System’s intimate connection with Chaldean Numerology and through this discovering the true Planetary Sign Card for those born under the Sign of Leo and Cancer and the discovery of the Planetary Number Card, along with daily triggers within the Weekly Charts, other than the Direct Card. Understanding more deeply the meaning and essence of each Card through it’s Number and Planetary association from the Aces to the Kings.
Mystic Receptions that not only happen within the same Chart, but across Charts in effect at the same time, causing important triggers for events and situations.
Mystic Conjunctions that happen when the same Plate is in effect in different Charts at the same time and can also happen with the same card in effect in different Charts in different Plates.
Recognizing the Card behind the Birth, or Planetary Sign Card as the Synastry/Theme card and it’s important role in the Chart.
The Mathematical formula on which the System and the configuration of the 90 Plates are based.
Created an Aspectarian to show the aspect (Square, Opposition, etc.) each Card makes to the Zodiac Sign a person is born under.
