Well, i haven't considered numerology, but i have considered a kind of
tarot-card system with 25 cards based on the Rokbeigalm's (the
Rokbeigalmki conculture) five life-elements, which each are connected to
a specific life-cycle event:
aurez (wood) - being born
zek (fire) - puberty
reiyug (blood) - marriage
dwi (water) - giving birth / begetting
amal (earth) - death
So, if you have a card for each combination of two elements - aurez-zek,
dwi-dwi, amal-reiyug, etc., you get a total of 25 cards to do stuff with.
I have no idea what each would mean, though :)
