The key to the 100 piece playing card puzzle is on the back of each CosmicPuzzle card. The 12 zodiac cards are worked into the standard deck of 52 playing cards to create a calendrical array of 64 cards. These are surrounded by 36 original cards, in 6 color-coded suits. The sequences of images in each suit represent the visible solar system, evolution in a nutshell,  the human family through four generations, the ancient elements, the astronomical basis of the calendar,   the points of the compass. . The cards in each suit fit together into minipuzzle arrays. Six text cards sum it all up in rhyme. Table of Contents *copyright A. Chrystal 2000*The Codex
