Add up the dots of four colors and add another dot, which is 365 days, which is exactly the number of days in a year; Plus the king's point is 366 days, which is equivalent to the number of days in a leap year. J, Q and K in playing cards are exactly 12, which means there are 12 months in a year. The four colors in playing cards all have their own meanings.
