opinions?

visualize a C Major chord...we move upwards chromatically..so we go with flats..

C maj..add 5 flats..that means G is flated.. G flat resolves
downward 1/2 step to from the top of the minor chord ( B flat minor ), the  major chord that comprises that key is 1/3 higher so its D flat  major..
is that what we have?..yep..

ok..

D flat major..add 5 flats...thats 10 flats..( too cumbersome to
work with double flats or sharps..so subtract from 12 )..that means im in  2 Sharps..2 sharps..C is sharped which when resolved forms the bottom of the major chord  D major...

D major..( 2 sharps ) add 5 flats....= 3 flats...
A is flated ( 3 flats ) , resolves down to form the top of the
minor  chord ( C min),  1/3 up to find the major chord..E flat major..is  that what we have ..yep..

ok..
etc etc etc...

to impress on the mind  the active and passive tones in a key,
and to tie together the key signitures and the major and minor chords that establish the key itself.
