the Tarot reflects the same quaternity in the suits
The myth of the Tuatha De Danaan shows the connections of these divinatory arts. In this myth found in ancient texts that were transcribed from oral Irish traditions by the Monks after Christianity took over Ireland ...
it is told that the De Danaan arrived on the shores of Ireland with four treasures that were sacred to their race. The Sword of Nuada, the Lance of Lugh, the Cauldron of the Dagda, and the Stone of Manannan Mac Lir, or stone of Fal.
These four Irish-Druidic artifacts are understood to be the prototypes found in the Tarot: Sword, Lance (Stave), Cauldron (Cup), and Stone (Pentacle/Disc).
