-  Ace of Clubs -  The Wise Men Guided by the Star - "Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea ... there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem, Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him."  Matthew 2:1-2
-  Nine of Clubs -  Jesus Healing the Lunatic - "And when they were come to the multitude, there came to him a certain man, kneeling down to him, and saying, Lord, have mercy on my son: for he is lunatick, and sore vexed: for ofttimes he falleth into the fire, and oft into the water."
-  Seven of Diamonds -  Jesus Stilling the Tempest - "And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship, so that it was now full.  And he was in the hinder part of the ship, asleep on a pillow: and they awake him, and say unto him, Master, carest thou not that we perish?"
-  Three of Spades -   The Darkness at the Crucifixion - "And it was about the sixth hour, and there was a darkness over all the earth until the ninth hour.  And the sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was rent in the midst."
