The Shadow, The Sand, The Shot, The Time, The Silent, The Dream, The Twin, The Big, The Dark and The Return are definitely male in drawing and appearance. Others may be as well but is hard to tell because of the drawing style of CLAMP.

17 cards are symbolized by creatures, symbols and objects

Maybe some cards don't have a gender at all, hmm?

17 of them are items, objects or creatures. It is entirely possible that the cards themselves don't have gender period...only a similar make of what may be a humanoid form of their particular power, devoid or unbound by complexities of gender.

erm.. i dont think it is a book.. more of like a plastic book case with the clow cards in it..

D.J.P · « **Reply #46 on:** April 22 2005, 12:23 pm »

I think I'll save myself money and make print-outs instead

Arcademan · « **Reply #47 on:** April 22 2005, 01:04 pm »

The English Clow Book with the cards = $5 (which I paid for at a store of all places). They are NOT rare...do not pay more than that.

The Japanese Clow Book = $10/$15. Nicer but again it's not really that rare.

This has been Arcademan's buying tip for the day

I have the Clow cards that are in the Plastic book. The cards are really good quality. I also have the Sakura cards. Bought them off Ebay from China for Christmas. Before I bought those, we printed them out!

This thread has gotten really interesting.
The Clow cards are very similiar to Tarot cards, which I used to collect.
In Clamp No Kiseki it says the Clow cards were based on Tarot cards.

There are indeed based on Tarot as it's a combined source of Eastern Chinese and Western 'modern age' magicks

I have never heard of clow card fortune telling

Sakaki · « **Reply #51 on:** April 25 2005, 06:26 am »

I have the book that came with my Sakura cards that tells how to do fortune telling with the cards, but it's in Chinese.
I don't know if there is a translation anywhere.

Kero shows Sakura how to do fortune telling with the Clow cards in the episode about the Mirror card. It looks like they are laid out similiar to how you lay out Tarot cards.

Kero shows Sakura how to read the cards in an early episode...same principle

Sakaki · « **Reply #53 on:** April 25 2005, 01:33 pm »

Maybe you could get instructions for Tarot cards and try it the same way?

Syaokura · « **Reply #54 on:** April 27 2005, 08:51 am »

I used the Clow Cards I bought four years ago to do some pretend fortune-telling. Heck, I even used them as Tarot cards for a while.

Robin Sena · « **Reply #55 on:** April 28 2005, 06:49 pm »

I actually used them as fortune telling tools back then. Not now though.

Although there's a more destructive way in using them. But I'd rather not tell.

Robin Sena · « **Reply #56 on:** May 01 2005, 02:40 am »

Well the representations are a bit off but you can realign the cards to a particular meaning.

i dont think so they're real, of course

On the gender of the Clow/Sakura Cards, according to an article in CLAMP no Kiseki most of the cards are indeed female since it was a male (Clow Reed) who created the cards.

So if the cards were indeed real and if a female created them, would she make many of them male in origin?!! Interesting indeed...
