What does the king of size mean in playing cards?

The king represents the sun and Xiao Wang represents the moon.

According to the calendar in astronomy, westerners set up 54 playing cards in four colors. There are 54 cards in a deck of playing cards, of which 52 are original cards, representing 52 weeks in a year, and the other two are secondary cards (King and Xiao Wang). The king represents the sun and Xiao Wang represents the moon.

In a deck of cards, two clowns, one big and one small, represent the sun and the moon, so the remaining 52 cards represent 52 weeks of the year, four colors represent the four seasons of the year, and 13 cards of each color represent 13 weeks of each season. If each suit and number of cards are counted by points, the result of the big clown counting by half points is 365 days in a normal year, and if the big clown counts by one point, it is 366 days in a leap year. Experts generally believe that the above explanation is not a coincidence, because the design and invention of playing cards are inextricably linked with astrology, divination, astronomy and calendar. Ghost cards are indeed the most special existence in a deck of poker.

Extended data:

The traditional cards with the colors of spades, hearts, clubs and diamonds were invented by the French in the14th century, with only 52 cards at the beginning. Around 1850, some poker manufacturers began to add the 53rd card to their cards. At that time, this card was only used as a replacement card or as an advertisement. At that time, this card was not called JOKER, but called "extra card", which means extra card.

Because many cards have 53 cards, there are many card games played with 53 cards. Among them, a 53-card card game appeared in Mississippi, USA, which quickly swept across North America. At that time, there were generally 53 poker cards made in America.
