How a birthday reaches 21
Add the day, the month and the year you were born. If the total is over 22, add its digits, and repeat until you have 22 or less. The number left is your birth card.
The World is a personality card. Its digits go on to the soul card (2 + 1 = 3), so it pairs with The Empress.

What does it mean to have birth card 21?
It is the card your date of birth adds up to: The World. In tarot it speaks of completion, integration, and accomplishment. The excerpt above is the start; the full reading by topic is in the app.
How do I know if my birth card is 21?
Add the day, month and year you were born and reduce the digits until you have 22 or less. For example, January 5, 1950: 5 + 1 + 1950 = 1956, 1 + 9 + 5 + 6 = 21. The calculator on this page does the sum for you.
Are the birth card and the year card the same thing?
They use the same cards and the same sum. The birth card uses the year you were born and never changes; the year card swaps in the current year and changes every birthday.
