Ace of Spades

The Ace of Spades is an ancient symbol of the secret mysteries, the most spiritual card in the deck, yet also the most ambitious and in many cases materially oriented. It is also called the Card of the Magi, since the ACE OF SPADES was and remains a symbol used in many esoteric schools. Among them is the "Order of the Magi", whose members are responsible for preserving and spreading this system of cards. For people whose Birth Card is the ACE OF SPADES a conflict lasts throughout life between material, worldly needs and the deep spiritual heritage of past incarnations. The Life Path Cards of the ACE OF SPADES are two Sevens and two Nines. Both these numbers are connected with the highest spirituality and embody trials and misfortunes on the material plane. These four cards tell the Ace of Spades that they can find happiness only if they look at their life from a spiritual point of view and seek satisfaction in this area. The Ace of Spades has more abilities and opportunities in the spiritual sphere than most other cards in the deck, and if they go in this direction, many previously unknown doors will open before them. This will be the reward for the correctly chosen path. The ACE OF SPADES is a card of extremes: the personalities it represents are either purely materialistic, aimed only at work or career, or highly spiritual, having mastered esoteric knowledge. But even the materialistic personalities strive to give to other people. Self-giving is a natural manifestation of the essence of Aces of Spades. Their Karma Card — the Seven of Hearts — means that part of the most difficult trials lies for them in the area of relationships with family and friends. But it also gives Aces of Spades the opportunity to help their friends and all who need it with advice. Some even become professional advisers or consultants. They learn to let others be themselves and become accustomed to loving them simply for existing. Sometimes such lessons are very painful. But in the end Aces of Spades become very loving and caring people. The life task of Aces of Spades is to find inner peace through serving people and following higher principles. Aces of Spades come to understand the need for this after they have worked off the karma of past births and absorbed the unwritten law: as you sow, so shall you reap. Often these people take on a burden beyond their strength. Whenever they depart from the law or neglect their spiritual essence, they suffer punishment (often even too severe). Aces of Spades aimed predominantly at material achievements face constant problems. But if they keep to higher principles and listen to their inner voice, they will find guidance and protection, finding inner peace through awareness of the wealth of their spiritual world.

Relationships of the Ace of Spades with other people

The successful or unsuccessful relationships of Aces of Spades with other people depend mainly on how close they have come to the spiritual side of their life. Those of them who treat life more materialistically will constantly face tense situations in the area of love relationships. For such people emotional attachment brings constant suffering. Infidelity of loved ones, betrayal by family, endless disappointments will pursue the ACE OF SPADES until they understand that the root of all problems lies in their own disharmonious attachment. Another obvious cause is that Aces of Spades place true love on a high idealistic pedestal. Like Aces of Clubs, Aces of Spades seek an ideal love union with a person endowed either with spirituality or at least with firmness of character. They sense the potential possibility of a "divine" love union and often expect too much from their relationship with a partner. As soon as Aces of Spades stop indulging in dreams for a while and begin to work on themselves emotionally and in terms of sensual communication, their relationships will begin to improve and the chances of finding a kindred partner will increase. Aces of Spades have a hard path in love relationships, but their problems are surmountable. Deep down Aces of Spades are very loving and responsive people. They dream of a beautiful love and wait for these dreams to come true. And indeed, the ideal relationship that Aces of Spades strive for is quite possible, but usually it comes in fairly late years.

Compatibility of the Ace of Spades with other birth cards

It is always useful for Ace of Spades women to associate with men of the Heart suit, and they also usually bring much good to women of the Club suit. Men of the Spade suit have an inclination towards Ace of Spades women, and Ace of Spades women like men of the Diamond suit (although it is rather hard for these men to be beside them).

Princess Diana — an Ace of Spades

The story of Princess Diana is a magnificent example of the love life of an Ace of Spades. Before us is what seems a fairy tale about a princess who married her prince. Many thought this tale would have the right ending — after all, after the wedding the prince and princess should live happily ever after. And everything favoured this, did it not? Many even noted that the astrological sun signs of this couple (Cancer and Scorpio) are the most compatible in the Zodiac. But the fate of Princess Diana proved very similar to the classic fate of a person whose Birth Card is the Ace of Spades and who meets rather difficult situations in their love life. The Ace of Spades is called the Card of the Magi, since from the most ancient times it was one of the most important symbols of the secret mysteries of life. Perhaps it is the most spiritual card in the deck, and all people for whom it is the Birth Card must live a spiritual life, otherwise they will suffer heavily. But Princess Diana developed in this spiritual sense no more than you and I. And perhaps her fate once again gave us an important lesson: to become happy, popularity and royal dignity alone are not enough. Aces of Spades often have to heal deep emotional wounds. Look at the cards of their Life Path: among them are two Sevens and two Nines. One of the Nines is connected with Saturn. This is a very heavy combination. And it does not matter whom such people are married to, how much money or fame they have: all the same it will be very hard for the Ace of Spades to get rid of fears and emotional problems in love relationships. In her personal life Princess Diana was pursued by tense situations, which in the end led her to a final break with her husband. The Neptune Card for the Ace of Spades is the Two of Hearts. So such people strive most of all in life for a perfect love relationship. They treat love too idealistically and reverently and make too great demands on a partner. But they suffer defeat when their ideals collapse under sober reality. Princess Diana married Prince Charles — a Scorpio by sun sign, whose Birth Card is the Six of Clubs. There were many connections between them, most of them favourable. But among them were connections through Neptune too. At first Princess Diana must have considered her marriage ideal. And indeed, there were grounds for this. There are many magnificent marriages with less favourable connections. And although one should not reproach Princess Diana for the fact that her marriage to Prince Charles fell apart, everything that happened illustrates how the karma of one person can affect a couple's relationship.
