Neapolitan cards consist of forty cards, divided into four suits: cups, swords, coins and clubs.
The mystery surrounding this cards deck is made of a rich series of meanings and interpretations given by the Neapolitan esoteric tradition. The ace of clubs is the fire element and a phallic sign: the masculine fertility, and thus, the strength, the will, the success. It stands for the strength of the leader - who think first and act then for the substance and for the energy. This positive meaning becomes negative when the card is upside down.The ace of clubs’ interpretations also vary each time depending on the cards to which it is combined.
