Twenty-two major Arcana cards represented the twenty-twopaths from the Tree of Life. Later, Kabbalism married these paths to the twenty-two letters ofthe Hebrew Alphabet, constituting a complete unity of letters, cards, and paths. The evolutioncontinued with the advent of twenty-two Tarot cards, authored by the Order of Initiates, underan oath of absolute secrecy.
